I got into it after my LO was born (but like, long after - she's 2 now) and we're planning on TTC #2 this summer, but I'm hoping to keep up with it since I love it so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1586553 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 14:02:13 +0000 MrsH 1586553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm doing barre. I'm apparently so out of shape that I almost puked during both classes I've done so far :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1586413 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 13:29:14 +0000 gilmoregirl 1586413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not cleared yet but I'm looking forward to getting back to Jillian Michaels DVDs and some yoga. I'd really like to run again too, but don't know how to handle the boobs. Ouch. I'm only 3 weeks post-partum, so we'll see how I feel once I have healed more. Right now, we are walking a lot -- it gets me out of the house and the baby looooooves his stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1585022 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 00:41:50 +0000 SweetMamaM 1585022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am amazed at your get-up-and-go! It's pretty much all I can do to get through the long days with my LO at the moment - he's very active and demanding. I'm cutting myself slack though and will start back at the gym at six months when he's weaned and it's a bit easier to leave him in the gym crèche or with his dad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1585011 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 00:13:48 +0000 Honeygold89 1585011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ElbieKay: it's still early and you'll still have to take it easy at times like I say I'm on week 3 of working out and I'm almost 10 weeks pp and still have to take it easy at the gym sometimes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1582979 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 10:05:29 +0000 ElbieKay 1582979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well that backfired. I think I overdid it and was so tired i could barely function last night. My husband is going out tonight and can't cover for me with the baby. So, I'm taking today off and will do some more C25K tomorrow</p> <p>I learned in yoga that my core has completely disappeared. *sob* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1580986 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 13:31:37 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1580986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good for you! That's an awesome start.<br /> I'm 8 months pp, and just starting to get back into it now. I think I'm starting C25K. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1580980 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 13:30:11 +0000 Honeygold89 1580980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on week three now of being back at the gym I let DH pick my workouts so not sure what I'm doing but I'm back at the weights and cardio </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1580472 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 10:22:48 +0000 blackbird 1580472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You're so ambitious! Running was so painful in the early days postpartum (ok until i weaned). I did barre for a month, then did crossfit, then herniated a disc, then went back tot he regular gym, and i go back to crossfit on MONDAY! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1580423 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 10:04:11 +0000 MrsKoala 1580423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Starting soccer this weekend and possibly volleyball in a week or two. I'm so excited to get back into sports! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-exercise#post-1580390 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 09:51:18 +0000 ElbieKay 1580390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my checkup last week and am cleared for exercise! This morning I left the house at 5:30 and did the first day of Couch to 5K so that I would have time to shower, eat breakfast and pump before my husband needed to get ready for work. And my son and I are going to a "postnatal yoga bootcamp (babies welcome)" in an hour.</p> <p>Tomorrow my parents can watch the baby. So, I will do the 30-Day Shred in the morning before my husband gets up and then another round of C25K when they get here.</p> <p>What are you doing to get back into shape postpartum? </p>
