Exercising

When are you allowed to start exercising? I had my baby one week ago today, but didn't have any problems and i feel great. I just want to start doing lite exercises like walking, sit ups stuff like that. Is that ok, or is that to soon? I dont see my doctor for another 2 weeks.

Walking is perfectly fine...But I'm not sure about sit ups and other things...I'm almost 3 weeks PP and I gotta wait till 6 weeks... 

Quoting Mommie2Bee06:“ When are you allowed to start exercising? I had my baby one week ago today, but didn't have any problems ... [snip!] ... lite exercises like walking, sit ups stuff like that. Is that ok, or is that to soon? I dont see my doctor for another 2 weeks.”

i asked my doctor about how soon i could start after my baby is born and they normally say two weeks, but i wanted to know about cardio (i have an excersize bike at home i am going to use)...anyway, she said as long as i feel fine (you know, my bottom doesn't hurt from pushing) that it would be fine. i would wait on the sit-ups til you see your doctor (unless anyone else knows about that...but i don't)
