Resuming exercise is highly individual and depends on your healing, type of birth, and overall well-being. Generally, you can start with gentle breathing exercises and light movements once you can walk and sit comfortably, usually starting under medical guidance after sutures heal. By 12 weeks, many women safely transition to pelvic floor and deep core rehabilitation. It is crucial to get clearance from your doctor and ideally work with a postnatal strength coach to ensure you are ready for more intense activity, especially if you have Diastasis Recti (DR).
