Gynaec is the best to answer it, but if you are fine otherwise, you can resume you regular activity after 2 weeks of bed rest from the day you got operated. I started my office but was away from physical activity like walking a lot and all. My doc suggested to be little low on physical activity till 28 week as the chances of pre term goes away. I am now taking 10 min walk 10 min break and again walk plus have been doing light household work like cooking and all.. Hope this helps!
