Thanks!"

First, congratulations on your new baby! Just think, in 6 weeks (give or take) you'll get to hold your baby for the first time. This is a precious time in your life. They are little for about a blink and a half then...bam...well, my first baby is now 13. How'd she get so tall????

Now as to jogging so close after delivery...here are some things to think about. Your body is going to go through big changes in these last 6 weeks. As your body prepares itself for labor and delivery your pelvic bones will soften and spread. It takes time for those bones to "go back to normal" after delivery.

I learned this first hand shortly (2 months) after my youngest was born in a moms against the kids soccer match at a picnic. My hip was jarred partially out of socket from the running (and I'm using that term loosely ). Things just don't tighten back up immediately.

Definitely talk with your doctor at your next visit to see what she thinks.

Best wishes for a healthy new baby!
