When did you start working out after giving birth???

Question

Wanna workout again, I feel ready!!! But I’m only 2 weeks pp

Answer

Omg girl I feel the same!!! I want to go for a jog but can't until after my 6 weeks postpartum check up. I feel ready too, but have been doing postpartum yoga for now to hold me over. Some light crunches, walking, and some small hand weights for now...

Answer

Woah, 2 weeks? You need to talk to your doctor. Even my SIL who was an F’n BEAST at CrossFit and was doing all sorts of crazy shit when pregnant had to wait 6-8 weeks PP before lifting or exercising. 
While I couldn’t exercise when pregnant due to illness, I had an easier delivery then she did... but still had to wait 6 weeks pp to workout per my OB. 
So I say give your body even just 2 more weeks to heal. When in doubt, just take baby out for a little walk in the stroller to stretch your legs.

Answer

It depends on your birth and recovery. I’d get clearance from your doctor before doing any really strenuous exercise.
Some people also have and nominal separation after birth so you should be careful doing things like crunches, etc without medical clearance as it could make the issue worse.

Answer

Look for postpartum exercises. At only 2 weeks you have to start very light; ie stretches, a light walk, pelvic floor exercises things like that. You might feel good but you do still have a wound inside your body that needs to heal. You don’t want to overdue it and end up feeling like garbage or hurting yourself. 
I personally waited a few months with my first but I’m definitely looking into things to do earlier after this second pregnancy to help with energy levels.

Answer

Maybe start light. There's videos on YouTube that are low impact.
