I would wait till your PP checkup with the DR. Typically the DR gives you the go signal to do any kind of exercise. You can do walking if you need to have some kind of light exercise. In my case- i walked a lot but it caused prolonged bleeding and discomfort down there so I started taking shorter more relaxed walks.
