[quote=Anonymous]All of my pregnancies and (vaginal) deliveries were textbook and uneventful so recovery was quick and lochia subsided quickly too. Im a life long runner so I ran through my pregnancies and as soon as I was cleared at 6 weeks post partum I was ready. Up until then, I did a ton of walking to get myself moving. The only tricky thing about post partum running is having full breasts. I had to either pump or nurse before hitting the trail. I doubled up on sports bras too bc there was a lot more to keep in place. If you're a hard core runner with long aerobic runs and sprints, be mindful of the lactic buildup. Apparently, a lot of it can make your milk taste sour (temporary of course), but Fyi. Curious how you have a 4 week post partum check up. The standard is 6 weeks. [/quote]
