Gemma Atkinson celebrates ‘new mum goals’ as she gets back into daily hobby she had to give up in pregnancy
GEMMA Atkinson had to give up some beloved activities while she was pregnant, but now she's finally able to return to them since giving birth in July.
The actress took to her Instagram Stories and celebrated her "new mum goals" as she plunged herself into a freezing cold ice bath.
Gemma, 38, was forced to stop taking ice baths while she was pregnant with baby Thiago due to the potential risks involved.
But taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the new mum of two gave her followers a glimpse into her morning routine as she returned to her beloved hobby.
Filming herself entering the ice bath with the song Let It Go by Idina Menzelin in the background, she penned to the clip: "This song seemed appropriate.
"5wks post C section. 10.5 months post-last ice bath. Small win for me!."

She told her followers: "I did it. I only managed about 42 seconds but I did it!
"Ok, ok, tiny little back to myself again."
Gemma and her fiance Gorka Márquez, 32, welcomed newborn Thiago last month.
