I couldn't exercise for six months post partum as I had an incisional hernia from the last CS and then had to have surgery to correct that.

But for previous one could. not. be. arsed. really

I suspect most first time mums have enough trouble getting themselves dressed let alone bloody leaping about trying to reduce the size of their arses, frankly. Or was that just me?

I'm not currently in the Uk but I was in the Uk when I had ds.... am I still able to enter or not?

Was there a space to say when you started exercising again? I was walking everywhere from 3 months I'd say but wasn't up to proper exercise eg DVD until DD was 6/7 months old, that might have been a good question.

all of my exercise involved pushing the buggy with the dog in tow but I did do a hell of a lot of that as I was slowly going round the twist indoors

I did the survey a few days ago. I'm never sure if I'm meant to add to the thread or not...
I would have loved a group class in my area where the class involved exercising with my baby. To Both meet people and learn ways of keeping fit even with a baby who needed to be near me constantly.

Oh just read the thread. I had no idea "buggy fit" existed.

Done. That was quite fun!

I was going to go to a class called "pushy mums", but it was a bus, metro and another bus away, and that just seemed a bit much on top of the class, and the fact that I would have had to do it pushing a double buggy as DD1 was still too young, and I had a limp until about 18 months after having DD2 anyway.

Also, I'm a lazy arse.

"pushy mums"!

Done but it wasn't clear what was meant by exercise. I haven't done any sports or gym or anything, but with a 3yr old and a baby to take care of, housework, gardening etc, I wasn't exactly sitting on my backside watching TV all day!

I really need those vouchers, I have no clothes that fit me

Done - but I was a bit confused about the 'first few months' thing - I thought that because of the mention of 3 months that it meant that so I probably underestimated what I did because I didn't start until 8 weeks and so was only just getting going by 3 months.
