Malgorzata Kozuchowska candid about getting back in shape after pregnancy

Challenges after pregnancy

Kozuchowska, known for her roles in M for Love and Rodzinka.pl, became a mother at the age of 43. After the birth of her son, Jan, she had to quickly return to work, which was quite a challenge for her. The actress admitted that she gained 24 kilograms after her pregnancy, which affected her mood and confidence.

Quick return to the set

Three months after the birth of her son, Kozuchowska returned to the set of Rodzinka.pl. It was difficult for her, both physically and mentally.

When Jas was three months old, I had to go back to work for Rodzinka.pl, stand in front of the camera, but also on the walls, during various press conferences and frameworks. And I didn’t feel comfortable in the size I was at the time,” she told Interia in an interview.

Time to regenerate

The actress was aware that getting back to her old form required time and patience. She knew she couldn’t afford restrictive diets or intensive exercise because she was nursing a baby and spending most of the day on set.

It was difficult, but I realised that only time would help me here, that simply my body had to go through it and at some point it would return to normal. Indeed, after a year, a year and a half, it did,” admitted Kozuchowska.

The actress emphasises how important it is to give your body time to recover and accept the processes your body goes through after giving birth.
