[quote=Anonymous]FTM.  Took yoga at Core Power Yoga (hot yoga with weights) before getting pregnant.  Had difficult pregnancy and eventually put on bed rest, so obviously stopped working out.  Had difficult, long labor and ended up with emergency c-section.  Now - 10 weeks later - looking to get back into the swing of things.  CPY was the best workout I've ever had and it totally transformed my body, but I was only ever doing the "Sculpt" classes (not too much yoga, a lot of push ups, planks, burpees, etc.).  Not sure if my body is quite ready for that intense of a workout yet and I'm interested in broadening my horizons and getting into the actual practice of yoga (maybe even meditation) and maybe even taking my baby along with me!

Has anyone started or resumed practicing yoga or pilates after a c-section?  How soon after the delivery did you start (back) up?  What were your experiences?  What studio did you go to?  Did you find the studio and teachers to be understanding of the healing process, your limitations, etc.?  Were there any poses or positions that you could not do or that felt uncomfortable?  When did that resolve, if ever?[/quote]
