When I was a runner, it was easy to find training plans online. Any idea of where I can find a similar type plan, but with just generic workouts? I need a plan to know how to get started and have something to stick too.

Are you planning on running? Runners world has a forum for pregnant/postpartum runners but I'm not sure of an actual workout plan, they might have something on there.
For me, working out postpartum was like working through pregnancy in reverse, I still felt 8 months pregnant when I first started running but it went quicker than a full pregnancy, so there's a lot of playing by ear still. -
I think it really depends on what you want to do. Personally, I plan on starting off with some low impact stuff (barre) and some Insanity type videos at home. By the time I'm back at work, I will be back at Crossfit. My weights will be lower and I will have to build up my strength again, but I don't think it will take that long.
Everything I've read said to just take it slow and don't work your abs out too much until you are SURE any separation is gone or you can inhibit them from knitting together strongly.

I downloaded the couch to 5k app for when I am released to exercise ! I walked yesterday for the first time and it was so nice to get out ! Can't wait to run

I wish I could still run! Unfortunately I have an old injury that never healed.
