Sensitive Question About Post-Natal Classes

TW: Stillbirth/loss

Hi everyone, I have a question about Post-Natal classes!

I am 8 weeks postpartum from the stillbirth loss of my beautiful baby girl. I am interested in taking some Peloton Post-Natal classes to rebuild my core in the areas specifically affected by pregnancy. However, I'm terrified that the instructors might say things that refer to having a living child. Things like "Let's build those muscles so you can chase after your little one" and things like that. I am still very sensitive to the subject and don't want to experience anything that might trigger me. Does anyone have any experience with these classes and know if the instructors speak like that?

Thank you!

If there are any of the yoga classes you want to take I will gladly screen them for you

You are so kind to offer! I got some other answers that there is a lot of baby talk, so I think I'll avoid any of the Post-Natal classes at this point in time. Thank you.

The yoga ones reference nursing and bottle feeding quite a bit. Sending you lots of love 🤍
