In this episode of Best Health, we’re talking all things postpartum.
What exactly are baby blues? How do I know if it’s more than that?
Angela Hovi, one of Bermuda’s biggest supporters of women through the postpartum period is here to guide us through the physical and mental realities new parents face.
Angela is both a personal trainer with a focus on pregnancy and postpartum fitness, as well as the founder of Beyond Blue – a support group for mums with baby blues, depression, anxiety and stress.
During her own pregnancies and postpartum periods, Angela found it difficult to find reliable, evidence-based information on how to continue and return to exercise, and so 10 years ago, retrained as a PT – now passing on her research on postpartum fitness and recovery to private clients and group classes.
During her two pregnancies, Angela also suffered with postpartum depression and anxiety. Not wanting other women to feel alone as new mothers, Angela teamed up with MAMA Bermuda to start Beyond Blue in 2015 – offering support to those suffering with PPD.
For more information or support, you can contact Angela directly:
