It is advised to wait at least six weeks after giving birth to begin exercising.
However. If you had an uncomplicated vaginal delivery, it's generally safe to begin exercising as soon as you feel ready.But of course intense exercises are postponed for a period of time ,there are special exercises given after delivery you can ask your gynecologist about or you may start with a simple to moderate workout and increasegradually if you feel fine .
BUT If you had a C-section, extensive vaginal repair or a complicated birth, talk to your doctor about when to start an exercise program.
Exercise isn't thought to have any adverse effects on breast milk volume or composition, nor is it thought to affect a nursing infant's growth.
high-intensity physical activity can cause lactic acid to accumulate in breast milk and produce a sour taste a baby might not like. If you're breast-feeding, you can prevent this potential problem by sticking to moderate physical activity and drinking plenty of fluids during and after your workout.
If vigorous activity is a priority during the first few months of breast-feeding, consider feeding your baby before your workout or pumping before your workout and feeding your baby the pumped breast milk afterward. This can also help you stay comfortable while you're exercising. Alternatively, you can simply avoid breast-feeding your baby right after your workout. After months four to five of breast-feeding, physical activity has less of an impact on your milk because your body produces most milk at feeding time.
