When can I use weights?

Question

I’m almost 3 weeks PP and some of my stitches haven’t dissolved yet but the bad ones have. When can I use weights? I don’t have a postpartum checkup until the 26th which will be 6 weeks PP. I really want to work out my butt, arms, and abs. 
When is it safe to do this? 
I feel normal again and I’m not bleeding too much

Answer

Wait until 6 weeks. Your body needs to heal. Otherwise you’ll probably make yourself start bleeding.

Answer

I’m struggling with this too. I feel totally normal but I don’t have an appointment until the 26th. I need the gym!!!

Answer

wait untik 6 weeks. Just because you may feel alright now doesn't mean your insides have recovered. Just hang out and enjoy the chill, and go back to it when you are cleared

Answer

I was cleared upon leaving the hospital and was back in the gym a week later. But everyone’s different.
