PP exercise

2.5 pp and I feel 100% fine. Still bleeding a tiny bit here and there- but not ever any red blood. I'm wondering if any moms started working out before their 6wk check? And what'd you do? Walking is getting boring I-)

Re: PP exercise

  • Waiting until my 6 week to get cleared to run. Walking now... have you tried audio books??

  • I started light exercise about 3 weeks PP bc I also felt 100% fine. I started power walking and doing static exercises with lunges, squats, wall sits, arm workouts using the wall, and modified push ups- I also attended yoga once a week. At 4-5 weeks I started a light workout video about 2 times a week. I'm now cleared for exercise and have started running and working out more often. I made sure to not do anything inverted and continued to watch for bleeding and listened to my body to not over do it.

  • I'm waiting. I feel 100% (other than a cold) but I'd rather be safe. I'm walking a lot though. My appointment is Wednesday and I have a workout class starting Thursday!

  • Even walking around my neighborhood (we have a bunch of hills) seems to be bringing on bleeding for me, so I'm waiting for my 6 week clearance and resting up in the meantime. 10 days to go!

  • I was walking only until cleared last week. Even though I waited i've had pelvic pain after short workouts that I didn't think were strenuous. I am still focusing on walking and will slowly add other moves.
  • I'm easing into it but have been feeling fine since about 2 weeks and haven't been bleeding since 3 1/2 weeks. I do tons of walking, I've ran a few times and do lots squats, lunges, etc. I pay attention to how I feel during and after and will slow down if I have pain or bleeding.

  • I have been feeling fine and was considering trying to step it up (3 weeks pp), but then I ran a little bit while playing with my 2.5 year old at the park and I swear I could feel my uterus bouncing around in there. It was bizarre and unpleasant. So, no exercise for me until at least 6 weeks, maybe longer if that's still going on.
