Life after birth : Getting back into shape

Start exercising as soon as you can after delivery
The sooner you start your postnatal exercises, the quicker you will return to your pre-egnancy shape
If you exercise religiously, you may come back to your original shape in three months time
Pelvic floor exercises are the most important exercises as your pelvic floor needs to be strengthened considerably
It may take a while before you can resume your normal exercises (like aerobics etc). If you have stitches or have had a caesarean, you may be told to wait for 12 weeks after delivery before resuming a vigorous exercise regime
