Red face Exercise?

Have you ladies started any kind of physical activity since your babies birth? I have been going for walks on a regular basis but that's about it. Not sure I should do much more quite yet after a CS. I would like to get back into doing Pilates but to find a time when both kids are sleeping or occupied is hard especially since I try to get some rest on the rare occasion that happens...

I go to strollercize on tuesday and thursdays. It's basically walking/running around the track and then after each lap (or 2) we do some sort of cardio exercise or a strengthening exercise. It's really really good but I'm sooo dead afterwards and usually hurt the next day. I also am doing pilates on Tuesday nights (just started that this week). It's interesting..not sure if I like it yet...have to give it a couple more classes...but even if I dont' like it I still have 10 wks of it. Also, I'm doing either 1/2hr on the treadmill on the weekend or one of my DVD's (usually a cardio one). I have my 10 yr reunion in June so I'm wanting to look good for it when I go....and plus I want to lose this baby weight too.

It took me several months after c/s to start exercising again. . .although I thought chasing the twins counted?

Yeah walking does a lot more than you think it does! I have about 10 more pounds to go (minimum) and I've noticed a difference just from walking everyday/ It helps that the weather is so nice out here now!
