Working out...

[alparen]

Curious to know when is a safe time to be working out after a csection? I had mine on the 20th of January and I'm eager to get started doing some situps to get rid of this belly pudge I got going on. I also need to strengthen up my legs and back from being on rest my whole pregnancy. I just want to make sure I'm safe to do anything because I know it takes awhile for the inside stitches and such to heal.

I had DS a day before you and my quack said I could start doing GENTLE excercise now and give it another month before I think about upping the tempo so to speak.

I haven't heard this yet why is that? I was told after my 6 week appt my doc will most likely tell me it's fine to do very low impact exercises and work my way up.

I started back 7 weeks after. You will be fine, just dont overdo on the stomach exercises.
