Abby discovered the BetterPoints app from a friend (and fellow mum) who she met during her antenatal days in May this year. She told her how it was encouraging her to get back to walking, so she decided to give it a go.
Here is what she said about how the app has helped her postpartum:
"After giving birth I was really struggling to go back to walking and cycling. I couldn't get 2km done postpartum. I am naturally competitive, so the idea of having other people on the app to do competitions motivated me to join and get walking.
I love the different avenues of getting points, most especially the Walk and Talk activities. It has given me the opportunity to go out and meet other people, having great conversations while exercising with my little one.
I have definitely enjoyed being active much more. I set weekly goals for myself and get very excited when I receive points and tickets. I have recruited my husband too and we walk more as a family.
Getting back to daily walks has helped my body postpartum, and that has also helped my mental state. It has also created an extra bonding activity with my partner and our little one."
