[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is not safe. Maybe you will be completely fine but if your pelvic floor is not back in shape you risk more long term issues.

As a French person I am appalled by how little attention doctors here are paying to this. In France you never get clearance to exercise before completing PT for your pelvic floor (5-10 sessions minimum depending on your first assessment). Having given birth in the US I didn't pay much attention and bragged to my French friends about being back in the gym 6 weeks after giving birth. I thought they were acting the proverbial anti-gym frenchiness...

Well, I am the one who can't jump on a trampoline now without leaking :(. 2 years after my daughter's birth and I am finally trying to change this with a proper keggel and pelvic floor routine. I wished someone had told me that rushing into running after giving birth was not a priority: keggels were..[/quote]

+1000 I'm currently trying to get my insurance to pay for pelvic floor physical therapy after two babies have wrecked my pelvic floor muscles.  Why isn't PT standard care for all post-partum patients???  [/quote]
