Overdoing it

My doctor was not kidding when she said to start slow! I'm 7 1/2 weeks PP and my mom came over to watch LO while I ran some of my big errands today, ie picking up fresh sand for DS's sand table, sundries from Target, grocery shopping, and a few other stops while I was out. Normally I will only run one errand and do some housework while she's over. I was gone for 3 1/2 hours today and I'm paying for it now! I feel like someone took a baseball bat to my feet, hips, and lower back! Someone remind me how long it takes to return to normal! Just so I have hope! Reaching for the Advil now...

Edit: and just to finish my rant, I took a nap with LO and woke up with a 101.5 degree fever. Note to self: take it slowER!

    I hear you, I'm 5.5 weeks PP.  My mom and I took my son for a walk yesterday for the first time since he's been born.  Normally we're power walkers, but she was pushing the stroller and everything, and I had to keep asking her to slow down.&nbsp
