Fans were quick to comment on the post, sharing things such as, "I love that this workout is also diastasis friendly! A lot of Mamas have that, including myself, so I avoid things like planks and traditional crunches. Trying this tonight! Thanks, Boo!," and "This inspires me! I have a toddler and three-month-old at home, and it is hard finding time for yourself, which encourages me to lose the baby weight! Just saved this post!"
Another said, "You look phenomenal!! Hope you are all doing well! 😍," while one of her fans expressed, "Trying this today! I am 9 months postpartum and working hard to get myself back in shape/doing self-care. I have an autistic two-year-old girl who struggles with eloping and needs a lot of physical touch. I need to be able to hold her and keep up with her as she grows. This is helping so much; thank you for sharing!"
While one of Carson's fans commented, "Thank you for sharing this. I would love to see more of these❤️."
As one of her followers wrote, "Oh, can't wait to try!! Still trying to get my groove back, and I'm a whole year postpartum!"
Witney Carson Gives Birth To Second Child
"Dancing With the Stars" professional Witney Carson gave birth to her second child just moments before Mother's Day.
Carson and her husband, Carson McAllister, welcomed their son, Jet, to the world, who had to be rushed to NICU to be observed while on the C-pap machine to help him breathe.
"Soon after he was placed on my chest, he was rushed to the NICU. He spent an hour on the C-pap machine to help him breathe and another hour for observation. Felt like the longest two hours of my life…," Carson explained on social media shortly after announcing the news. "We spent most of Mother's Day cuddling skin to skin, and he continued to get better 🥹🙏🏼 He's a little fighter, and we couldn't be more grateful that he's here with us. We love you so much, Jet🤍."
