How soon after giving birth can I start postpartum exercise?
According to the American Council of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, with your doctor’s approval, you can start postpartum exercise as soon as you feel that you are ready. Start slowly- give your body time to heal. If you have diastasis recti, a separation of the abdominal muscles of more than three fingers width, do modified versions of abdominal exercises until the gap has narrowed to two fingers. If you had a C-section, wait at least six weeks before beginning abdominal exercises.
