Losing what used to be the bump....

LO is high maintenance. I don't have the energy or time for a work out video. But I want to do something to help tone back the flabby belly that proves I probably indulged a little too much over the course of 9 months. What are your favorite post-baby exercises from the comfort of your own home? Looking for some to do when I remember or while LO has his 10 minutes of tummy time before each feeding. Now that the weather is picking up to be warmer and baby seems to enjoy walks, getting my rear in gear and walking more will help too I'm sure. I was fairly active before baby, but the last 3-4 months I hardly did much due to energy and time.

    Hadn't thought of a jump rope! Will have to hunt one down! Good for mini cardio sessions!

    If you have an exercise ball there are a ton of quick and easy exercises you can do with that. I've been trying to work some quick sessions in during LO's naps and such.

    Now that LO is getting stronger and can support his head, I've been incorporating him into my workouts. I know you said no videos, but maybe try YouTube and do a search for something that appeals to you. I do a few short ones everyday. There are some good short postpartum ab clips on there.

    I have some abdominal separation, so I do a program called MuTu.  I did it after DD1 and it was great for strengthening deep core muscles and getting me strong enough to go back to normal core activities like plank, etc.

    Sorry to jump in, but can I ask -- How do you know that you have abdominal separation? I've heard of it before, of course. But, would I know if I had it? I had a c-section, so I know that things might not ever be the same. I'm a little scared try anything but walking right now bc sometimes my abdomen just feels strange (internally, like out of place) when I twist/turn/pick stuff up.
    So, back to the subject...my workouts right now are pretty much walking, and I have one of those resistance bar/band combos to work my arms out when I can.
