I was a keen walker before and during my pregnancy and this has continued since Aisha was born. We have a mountain buggy jogger pram and I love it.
I had a forceps delivery with episiotomy, and couldn't walk much other than (slowly!!) around our local shopping centre for the first 5 weeks or so. After that I gradually built up and I can pretty much walk as far as I used to now. I still try to keep in mind that I am breastfeeding so need to keep a bit in the tank and not over do it.
My advice would be don't worry about the housework or even having a shower, when you are ready to get out of bed, change and feed your bub, have a big breakfast yourself, get dressed and get out of the house, taking a big drink bottle and snacks with you.
