Kourtney Kardashian has let fans in on her postpartum health regimen as she keeps herself in shape for “the most important job in the world”: motherhood.
The 44-year-old and her husband Travis Barker announced in early November that she had given birth to their son Rocky Thirteen.
On Wednesday, seven weeks after Rocky's arrival, Kourtney revealed she had returned to the gym for the first time.
On Saturday, she took to her Insta Stories and showed her fans how meticulous she has been in reintegrating workouts into her busty schedule.
She posted a black and white video of her feet on an uphill treadmill, set to Carol Of The Bells, a nod to the fact that it was the day before Christmas Eve.

Kourtney wrote about the video that she was “doing the most important job in the world… being a mom: keeping my body alive, breastfeeding on demand means keeping the calories high with lots of nutritious foods.”
She noted that she was “taking the time to slowly get back into some uphill walks on the treadmill when I could sneak them in, along with my walks outside in the stroller.”
In the spirit of holiday generosity, she concluded her message by encouraging her 224 million Instagram followers to “be kind to yourself.”
Kourtney had come over three days earlier her Insta Stories to indicate that she was starting her 'first day at the gym' since giving birth.
She indicated that she would leave comfortably at 10.25am and made it clear to her followers that she was 'taking it easy'.
Kourtney, who now has four children, directed her following comments to her fellow moms: “no rush, no pressure mamas, your body is healing, it's not a race.”
She did provide some details about the content of her last training session, stating that she “ran for 30 minutes at a 3.0 12.0 incline.”
Her latest update comes just weeks after she revealed that she ingests her placenta after the birth of her fourth child.

In late November, she took to her Insta Stories to announce that her placenta had been put into pills that she could eat over time.
While she insisted that “this is #notanad,” she specified that she had used the services of California-based company Mommy Made Encapsulation.
She previously ate her placenta when she gave birth to her son Reign, eight, the youngest of the three children she shares with her ex Scott Disick.
Scott and Kourtney were together for nine years, and in addition to Reign, they share two older children named Mason, 13, and Penelope, 11.
Kourtney is among a group of showbiz figures who have adopted the placenta-eating trend, including her little sister Kim Kardashian.
