When did you start working out again?

I've heard you are supposed to wait 6 weeks to work out but what did you do? I know some doctors say less.

  • Not until after my 6 week appointment, but I had bp issues pp.
  • i got the ok at my 4 week follow up.  he said to start off really light though, so i've just been walking my happy ass around.
  • I was given the OK for pretty much any low impact cardio starting at 2 weeks PP, if I felt up to it. ?I was told no heavy weightlifting (more than 15 pounds) until 6 weeks PP. ?

    I started working out at 3 weeks PP. ?

  • 6 weeks or when you stop bleeding. I started at the end of 4. You can typically start walking immediately.
  • Last night.  I was too lazy and tired before.
  • Wait, I was supposed to start working out again?!

    Heehee. 

    I got the okay at 6 wks, but really still only do walking. I'm l.a.z.y.

  • I've been doing walks around the neighborhood but I'm going to wait for the go ahead from my ob before I do anything more than that.
  • Well I ran the day I went into labor with Olivia, which was Saturday..had her Sunday, went home Monday, went to the gym on tuesday for a walk for 30 minutes and on the elliptical for 15 minutes!  I am not 10 weeks pp and am up to about 90-120 minutes per day, but it is hard to find the time with two under two!  (i would not recommend this for everyone, but I was VERY in shape before pregnancy and during pregnancy!)
  • I waited till 6 weeks and I've been pretty lazy about it
