Exercising after third degree tear

Hello ladies,

I gave birth coming up to 12 weeks ago, and suffered a 3b tear and also had an episiotomy. I’ve got a physio appointment next week, I was just wondering if they’re likely to say I can start exercising again?

I know it will depend on how I’m healing, but I’m keen to get back to doing something so wanted to hear from anyone else who had a similar tear and when they got back to exercising?

I feel pretty much back to normal down there, bar the wind incontinence which is lingering 😭 and I’m doing my pelvic floor exercises daily.

At my six week postnatal check - which was actually at eight weeks - all the doctor did was ask a few questions, no physical check, and when I asked about exercising she said to wait until my physio.
