But most new mothers start walking, doing pelvic floor muscle exercises and lower abdominal muscle exercises almost immediately. In the first 6 weeks after delivery, you can start walking briskly, just to exercise and get your blood circulation going. Do it according to your ability, even if it's only 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Increase the time as your physical strength increases. When walking, be careful not to take long strides and let your arms swing naturally at your sides. First, do 5 to 10 minutes of rhythmic warm-up activities, such as stepping, gently bending your knees, shoulder circles, arm circles, etc. Try to exercise three times a week, 20 to 30 minutes each time. Remember to do pelvic floor muscle exercises while walking, which can help avoid postpartum urinary incontinence.
