7 months pregnant + back in the gym after a MONTH away 😭🤎

After being sick, travelling, home workouts and taking some much-needed time off, this workout felt SO bloody good.

Not chasing PRs, not trying to prove anything — just moving my body, getting stronger for baby and feeling like myself again. 🥹

And obviously… the post-workout iced mocha from @druabrew was non-negotiable 😂☕️

Pregnancy-friendly doesn’t mean easy. It just means training for the season you’re in. 🌺

I’ve never wanted motherhood to be the reason I stopped taking care of myself.

From Bella sitting in her stroller at 3 months old… to sitting on my shoulder at 11 months… to playing beside me while I got my sets in… to yesterday, at 23 months, running right next to me. 🥹🏃🏽‍♀️

Some days motherhood means a full workout.
Some days it means a run with a few “baby breaks.” 😂
And sometimes it means turning your workout into play.

But I’ve always wanted Bella to see that taking care of myself is part of taking care of our family too.

Not because I need to “bounce back.”
Not because I need to look a certain way.
But because I want to be strong, healthy and capable for myself and for her.

I hope she grows up knowing that movement isn’t punishment, and motherhood doesn’t mean putting yourself last.

And now… I can’t wait to add another little running buddy to our team. 🥹🤎

One mama, two little running buddies. Coming soon. 🏃🏽‍♀️🌺

Two different styles, two different moods 🌺

The Flawless Plunge Nursing Bra in Rose Dust gives me that feminine, supportive feel, with easy nursing access for the next season of motherhood.

The My Comfort Bra in Oat is soft, wire-free and effortless—the kind of everyday comfort I can see myself reaching for through pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.

I love that Hotmilk creates pieces designed to support women through different seasons and journeys, without compromising on comfort or style ✨

For a long time, I felt caught between two worlds.

The culture I was raised in and the evidence I’ve learned as a certified pre- and postnatal coach. This isn’t about choosing one over the other. It’s about learning how to honor where we come from while also embracing what we now know through research.

This was one of the hardest pieces I’ve written because it’s deeply personal.

If you’ve ever felt torn between family traditions and doing what you believe is best for yourself or your children, I hope this resonates with you.

Growing a baby means my body deserves just as much care as my workouts. 🤎

Slowing down and taking five minutes for myself has become one of my favourite parts of pregnancy.

Thank you @puremama for spoiling us with your Pregnancy Care Set. I can’t wait to make this part of my daily routine. ✨ #gifted #puremama #skincare

Tonight’s full-body strength session as a pre and postnatal coach 🤰🏽✨

Still lifting, still moving, still listening to my body. Pregnancy has changed how I train, but not why. Strength now is about feeling good, supporting my growing body, and preparing for birth and postpartum.

Couldn’t have asked for a better birthing experience after having such an amazing pregnancy 💫 Contractions started at 11pm, active labor was 2.5hrs labour, 30mins of pushing and literally squatted our beautiful, healthy girl out at 9am the following day— no tears or abrasions for māmā 🫶🏾 When the urge to push overtook, I tried two different positions but didn’t really feel comfortable. My husband is holding my hand, looks me right in the face and says, “Unaisi! You’ve literally been training for this your whole pregnancy. Just do what you’ve been doing and squat! Just squat!” So I did, and there our girl came sliding out, her head and whole body in one big push while squatting 😂 The unmedicated home water birth of my dreams. So thankful for the best support team, which consisted of my two incredible midwives, my mama & mother-in-love and my amazing hubby who hopped into the pool with me (even after I promised him months ago I wouldn’t make him do it 🤪😂). So so blessed 💗
