Delivered my baby girl about 5 weeks back, normal delivery. Im feeling a bit sluggish and want to slowly get back to some exercise. Not sure when its actually safe to begin. New moms how long did you wait?
With my normal delivery I began light walking after a few weeks once I felt ready. Proper exercise I started after the 6 week checkup with doctor's okay. Listen to your body, no hurry.
I was eager to get back but waited for my postnatal checkup clearance. Then started with gentle walks and easy stretches before anything intense. Only do what your doctor allows, ok.
After my C-section my doctor said wait longer, around 8-12 weeks and only after she checked the healing. I started with very gentle walks first. Please dont rush, the cut needs proper time to heal.
