Running after a C/S?

I want to get back into running... so bad. But, I'm so nervous. My incision sight still aches after active days and there are a few yoga poses I still can't do.

If you had a C-section and are a runner, how long before you started running again, and how did you ease back in? Did you run without the jogger first or just start with baby in the stroller? (and when can I run with E in the stroller?)

Advice?

    I waited until after my 6 week appointment to get the clearance from my doctor.  I started with walking, then slow jogging, then kicked it up when I felt comfortable.

    I ran with the baby in the infant seat in the jogging stroller.

    Just be sure to take it slow and listen to your body!  Have fun!
