Any c section momas exercising yet?

Question

I had my c section june 11th, i feel pretty good so i joined the gym today. I walked on the thread mill and did some spinning however i didnt feel comfortable doing abs. Has anyone tried abs yets? Did it feel normal to you?

Answer

Following! I'm at 7 weeks today and got the green light a week ago and honestly it was just the last couple days where i really feel great and like I can. Going to ease back into it though doctor said no need to. It's pretty amazing they didn't cut through an muscles but wow does pregnancy do a number on them. My core was the strongest it's ever been when I got pregnant and now i can't seem to find any muscles in there :(

Answer

I'm wondering the same thing. I had my c section June 28th and this coming Tuesday will be the 6 week mark, yet I'm still experiencing lochia and the last of my steri-strips just came off yesterday. I have numbness on my tummy between my scar and belly button. I've taken walks since I got home from the hospital, but any sort of intense, real workouts like I used to do seems out of the question. I hate it because I really want to start working out again!

Answer

I have and it feels fine, I would just ease back into it!
