Hi there! I'm Avra. I am 16 weeks postpartum with my first - a girl named Marlowe who is the best. Pre-pregnancy and during my pregnancy I was very active with things like walking, strength training, and barre. I slowed down a bit with prenatal yoga but continued my strength training until the end which has definitely helped my recovery. I had a c-section as my babe was quite large and I carried her for 41.5 weeks (she was quite happy in there apparently..). Now I am walking, doing breath work, and bringing back strength training in addition to carrying around a 13 pound baby. Excited to be here and continue to strengthen my body to be the best mama I can be!
Avra!
You guys are TOO cute! I love the matching glasses! Marlowe is such a beautiful and unique name! Is there a name story?
You did a great job with maintaining your fitness routine until you gave birth...I also was at the gym and training clients until the day I went into labor...I bounced back especially quickly after the my second baby, Jolie, during which time I was disciplined about doing Breathography with the Ab-Ribbon during the majority of the pregnancy. I am super excited for your participation and look forward to connecting with you in the community!

Forgot to add I'm 36 (almost 37 in a few weeks!) and live in Brooklyn, NY!
