new mom trying to get back in shape
Wow, I have a long road ahead of me. I got the greenlight Tuesday from the OB at my 6 week appt to resume all normal physical activity. I went on the elliptical today for 5 MINUTES and my thighs are still burning! Ugh!! I'm going to try and go on for at least 10 minutes while DD naps each day and build upon that. I can't wait to get back in running shape though, but I'm a loooooooooong ways from that!

hang in there and be patient! Watch your eatting and get out with your baby.
I am at 12 weeks PP, and my shorts are finally closing (but not as loose as before, but getting there.)

Sounds like you are ready to get going! Get out for walks with the baby, if you can. It's the best kind of exercise & it doesn't take a toll on your body.

Feed or pump just before and doulb e sports bra it. Even my BEST pre-preg running bras are not cutting it if I don't double-up.
