how long after c section is it okay to start working out?

6-8 weeks I believe. I chose not to work out after mine so I can't fully remember.

6-8 weeks. Give your body maximum time to heal

6-8 weeks but sometimes it's more for some people everyone heals differently! Keep in mind that a c section generally means it takes longer for your uterus and everything to settle back into place so for me it took me awhile for exercise to not hurt.

My doc said 6 weeks both times after my c-sections. I actually went in for an appt to be checked before I got approval to work out. I still had pain for over a year after my second one. I finally am able to tense up my abs and it's been 19 months.

4 weeks you can start to gradually walk if your doctor says yes.

I started by walking and I lost so much weight that time. My prepregnancy weight was 245 and 2 months after I was 215.

I'm starting work again this week.. I get my walks done there between 3 to 5 miles a day. I'm already 8 weeks pp.. but I'm still a little nervous. not trying to loose weight but just start@js_kidsmom shaping back up.

@smash6684 @beebaby @kittyfelts @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom @trice4990 thank you! I'll start a little at a time.

You're welcome. That's what I did too. Just listen to your body so you don't over do it.
