I got Wii Fit and started doing some of the ab exercises. OMG, not a good idea. I am super sore even though I stopped after only a couple reps.
So, for those of you who had c/s, when did you start doing ab exercises again? What did you start with? I started doing yoga again and I'm hoping that will help to slowly strengthen my abs. I was going to start pilates this week, but I think I'm going to hold off now.
My abs still get sore if I do a focused ab workout. I've been working more on sucking in the abs when walking, sitting, etc. and hope that I'll soon be able to do more. But remember I'm chasing a nearly 4 yr old around and probably haven't been so great about limitations in the beginning either.
I had a C, & when Jack was a little guy I joined Stroller Strides (they are in most cities). It whipped me into shape. They focus on abs during part of each session & it was the only thing that has helped. I had to give it up when Jack started getting older & it was severely messing with his naps .

I soooooooo wanted to join Stroller Strides, but the closest one is 45 minutes away. Grrrr. That is just not going to work right now ... BB wouldn't make it through the class and the ride home would be miserable.
Well, I had a classic incision, so that might make a difference, but it was good while before I could get any kind of exercies going, other than walking. Besides it being very uncomfortable, I think I had a psychological block that made me think that if it hurt I was going to split open. It was a good six months before I could convince myself to do sit-ups without fear of my spleen falling out on the floor.
