  • What did your doctor say? When you go in for your 6 weeks appt. Ask if it is ok if you begin to workout now. I think you have to wait a little longer after a c-section, but I am not sure.

  • I was cleared at 5 weeks (my 6 wk) check up. I wasn't actually able to work out for a few more weeks after that.

  • I would say until you get the word from your doctor at your post-op but you can do some simple stretches until then good luck!
