C-Section Moms...
When did you feel comfortable starting to do abdominal excercises? My Dr gave me the ok to work out at the 6 week visit, but sometimes I feel some pulling in the incision area when doing ab work, so I've just been doing some lower body stuff. You think I should avoid ab stuff for a bit longer? ( I delivered 11 weeks ago).

Re: C-Section Moms...
Months..but I had medical complications. I would wait till at least 8 weeks before anything OR until YOU feel it is okay.

Go with what your body tells you. I remember getting the okay at 6 weeks and also not feeling quite ready for ab work. I believe I started Pilates at around 8 weeks pp.

Re: C-Section Moms...
I got the ok at 6 weeks too. But like the other mom's - My body just wasn't ready.
I still don't feel ready, but I think that's just me being lazy &

Re: C-Section Moms...
You mean I can do ab work now?
I also got the ok at 6 weeks but was not even close to being ready.
Then again I was never really good at working on my abs.
