Within a couple of days, if that. I had a routine vaginal delivery. My midwife had recommended trying not to lift her up from the floor to up high- like have her stand on the bed for me to lift her over to the changing table, for a few days, but it wasn't a big deal. I tried to limit it in the very beginning but wasn't strict. Like @anonysquire: I actually felt a lot better immediately postpartum than pregnant- I had terrible back pain before.
