Exercise after c-section?

[PumkinPie]

How long should I leave it before doing any exercise after C-Section? Baby is almost 6 weeks now! I have googled and looked at my Midwife notes, but it's all a bit vague!

Cheers in advance (a.k.a andrea81) - long story!

It very much depends on how you feel and how well you are healing.

Get advice from your GP.
