Exercising too strenuously too soon can actually have dangerous and lasting consequences.
Now, you might think, “What’s the big deal? Maybe this woman just knows her body, and knows that this class will be just fine for her?” But Haley – who has extensive experience in the fitness industry, is a mom herself, and specializes in postnatal exercising – begs to differ.
Yup, it’s definitely something that is not spoken about nearly enough. And yes, there are a good deal of women who are too exhausted to think about any kind of exercise in the postpartum period. But for most of us, if we hear of a mom who is running or back to the gym just a few weeks after having a baby, we probably feel a certain amount of pressure to follow suit., Haley went into more detail about what she sees as the dangers of exercising too soon postpartum.
And don’t forget about postpartum stitches. “You don’t want to tear your stitches,” Haley said. “This could be detrimental in both vaginal and C-section recoveries. I remember going into a side lunge 6-8 weeks postpartum after having my first vaginal birth and thinking ‘Oh geez, was that too far?’ Why risk ripping a stitch? Let your body heal.”
“In a prolapse, the uterus, bladder, or bowel ‘prolapse,’ or fall out of their normal position and into the vagina,” Haley explained. “In severe cases, they can protrude outside of the vagina. Again, a prolapse can simply occur due to pregnancy or labor and delivery, but added pressure on the pelvic floor and/or heavy lifting can also cause a prolapse.”
“The general recommendation is usually to wait 4-6 weeks postpartum before beginning an exercise routine,” said Haley. “That said, that doesn’t mean you can’t move your body. Most doctors/midwives will give approval to begin going out for walks a few days after delivery. I always recommend that if you’re not sure of what you’re allowed to do, ask specifics.”
