Kourtney Kardashian is returning triumphantly to the gym, documenting her “first day” on Instagram.
While embracing a relaxed approach to postpartum fitness, the reality TV star and her husband, Travis Barker, are determined to enjoy the festive season with their newest addition, Rocky Thirteen.
Kourtney Kardashian Makes Gentle Return To The Gym
Just seven weeks after welcoming her son, Kourtney is trading intense sweat sessions for gentle strides and a lot of real talk. Reveling in the joy of new motherhood, the 44-year-old took to Instagram on Wednesday to showcase her commitment to a balanced approach to post-pregnancy fitness.
The actress walked confidently on a treadmill in the black and white video shared in her story. “7 weeks postpartum: First day in the gym,” she captioned the clip, noting her dedication to a gradual approach.
Kourtney also offered a candid insight into her fitness routine – opting for a gentle 30-minute walk at 3 miles per hour with a 12% incline. Her caption continued with an empowering message for fellow moms: “Taking it easy, no rush. No pressure mamas, your body is healing; it’s not a race.”
Kourtney’s postpartum journey comes as she and her beau expanded their blended family last month. The addition of Rocky Thirteen joined the “KUWTK” alum’s children Mason, Reign, and Penelope from her previous relationship, as well as Barker’s kids Landon, Alabama, and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya.
In the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles, even childbirth takes on a VIP status, as evidenced by the arrival of their newborn at Cedars Sinai Hospital. Privacy, a coveted commodity for A-list stars, played a pivotal role in the couple’s choice of this iconic medical institution, echoing the discreet preferences of their famous family members.
Unlike most hospital admissions, Kourtney discreetly checked in under an undisclosed identity, maintaining an air of mystery surrounding the celebrity-filled maternity ward.
Despite diligent inquiries, the facility housed no individuals under the names associated with the renowned pair. Cedars Sinai is a favorite among the famous family, with the TV personality having chosen the deluxe suites for the births of all three of her children.
The trend extended beyond the family, as her sister Kim welcomed her children, North West and Saint, in the same exclusive wing. Joining the star-studded roster, Blac Chyna, Rob Kourtney, and Kylie Jenner also opted for this premier birthing location.
The allure of Cedars Sinai lies not only in its celebrity-friendly admissions process but also in its opulent accommodations.
Insiders revealed that the deluxe suites boast “a patient room and an adjacent sitting room, and come with a luxury en suite, bath robes, recessed lighting, flat-screen TVs, hardwood floors and access to salon services such as haircuts, manicures, and pedicures.”
There is also the inclusion of food and amenities akin to a 5-star restaurant, as both parents are treated to three daily meals. The menu includes various dietary preferences, from vegetarian to vegan, and indulgent options like steak and wine.
Kourtney And Travis’s Holiday Plans For Blended Family
As the Kardashian-Barker family expands, the couple are set on creating special holiday memories despite having six kids from previous relationships. Sources close to the couple revealed that the lovebirds invested considerable effort to ensure the season was nothing short of “extra special.”
According to the insiders, “Kourtney and Travis couldn’t be more excited to spend their first Christmas with Rocky and all the kids. Kourtney is going to make this Christmas extra special and already started celebrating the season with an Elf on the Shelf for everybody including her baby boy.”
A sneak peek into their festive preparations emerged when Kardashian showcased her holiday decor, featuring the iconic Elf on the Shelf. The mother-of-four strategically placed these festive elves to represent each of her children.
The whimsical display included three grown elves symbolizing Mason, Penelope, and Reign and a pint-sized elf embodying their newborn baby boy.
In fact, the holiday spirit united the blended family in more ways than one. Barker and the children reportedly participated actively in decorating their home and joined forces for festive gift shopping.
An informant shared, “Travis and the kids have also been a huge help in decorating and shopping for gifts. Kourtney keeps saying she already got the best gift this year with their son. It’s a magical time for the whole family, and Kourtney and Travis feel so blessed.”
