It is said that c section recovery takes time and one must start exercise only after 6 months of delivery. 

Though I may not be in perfect shape but sharing my journey of weight loss after C section delivery with you all. 
I had become a couch potato while I was pregnant and had gained good 18 kgs out of which I lost about 4 kgs in the delivery process. 
Honestly, either exclusive breastfeeding or home-cooked food didn't help me lose the weight I had put on. Rather those pinnis and panjiri helped me put some weight on. Which is essential too I believe, so I didn't care about the diet till 1 year.
Coming to the workout regime- 

After 3 months of sitting and just waiting to lose weight, I decided to go for swimming.

Swimming is considered the lightest and low impact activity. You can start after about 4 weeks in normal and about 6 weeks in case of C-Section delivery. But it is very important your incision is healed and you take prior approval of your doctor before you jump into a pool.

I lost about 2 kgs in 2 months but more than weight loss, I was much active, felt my body had become lighter and my endurance was better to handle my little monkey. 
At about the 6th month after delivery, when winters began, I switched to light aerobics with mat exercise. My aerobics instructior gave me full liberty to choose my exercises for the very first month. I was allowed to do as much as my body allows. After a month, I was as good as any other person in the class, and then she started to push me further. I did heavy intensity aerobics and bhangra (If you know me, you know my passion for bhangra, which made me love my fitness routine). In those 4 months, I lost about 2-3 kgs. (Without following any diet)
Then due to a busy schedule and joining back office, I couldn't bother to shed some weight rather put on some 4-5 kgs again. 
After two and a half years of delivery, now I have decided to get back to the original shape. 
I am doing light exercise for about 30-40 mins (mostly bhangra, aerobics, or cardio) 4 times a week. 

Plus I am controlling my Carbs intake and taking enough protein to speed up my metabolism. Only these 2-3 things have lead me to lose 5 kgs in 2 months. And the process is still on. 
Tips-

⭐Always remember regardless of whenever you are starting and whatever exercise you are doing, listen to your body, and do as much as you feel comfortable. 

⭐Go slow, increase the intensity of the workout slowly and steadily. 

⭐Do what you like- I have an inclination towards bhangra that makes me love my workout, find what you like so you don't miss working out.

⭐It is said that a woman's body loses nutrients of 3 years in a pregnancy and feeding period. Don't start dieting for the first year. Have enough nutrients to let your body recover. 

⭐Always take the advice of a doctor before starting and in case you face any issue. 
I Will be back soon with the diet I am following. #wittymommytales  #themumsworld

Antenatal Care Classes have come into existence because the lifestyle of this generation has changed, have become sedentary and the quality of food has gone down drastically. Women have become more aware about the delayed effects of Cesarean section. 
But, it is in our hand to prepare our body for labor and normal delivery. Now what is "preparing our body for labor and delivery"? Preparing includes everything from diet, nutrtion, exercise, HypnoBirthing, lamaze breathing, comfort measures, dealing with aches and pain, preparing mentally for an addition of new member, changing priorities.. All these factors affects the Mother physically and mentally. 
Delivery or Childbirth is a process where the muscles around the perineum are over stretched to push the full term Baby out of the narrow but stretchable vagina. Exercises helps to prepare the muscles required for Delivery.
It is known that exercises help to ease the Pregnancy, but let’s highlight the few less known advantages of exercises:

 • Most importantly, Chances of Vaginal Delivery are particularly high

 • Helps to bounce back to the Pre – pregnancy shape with considerable ease
