Wondering when you can walk, drive, or start exercise after a C-section? Discover safe recovery timelines and expert physiotherapist insights.
As a physiotherapist and c-section mum of two, I know how important clear, evidence-based guidance is during your C-section recovery. When you’re looking after your beautiful new little person, it’s often hard to prioritise your own recovery. But understanding a c-section recovery timeline can help you plan ahead. In this post, I’ll walk you through what the research says, what’s safe at each stage, and the small milestones you can celebrate along the way, plus a few first-hand learnings. From when you can start gentle walking, to driving after a C-section, you’ll find timelines, tips, and reassurance to help you heal with confidence.

Early recovery has a special timeline so you can get back to everyday activities. But strength and power recovery takes much longer. So be kind to yourself.
Are you wondering “When Can I Resume Everyday Activities After a C-Section?”
I was too. When I had my daughter via emergency cesarean, I found the discharge guidelines so vague and general. Like everyone else, I was told I couldn’t drive until 6-8 weeks (unless I really had to) and no exercise for a while. Plus, definitely no lifting heavier than my baby for 6 weeks. But what about everything else?
When could I start walking? And what about gentle exercise? Sure, wait until 6 weeks, but then what? Luckily as a physio, I have some extra insight into recovery and even wound recovery which helped. But even then, I wanted more information. After I had my son, I found the information even more unhelpful. How could I do almost nothing when I had a just-turned-3-year-old to look after? So here are the answers I wanted which will hopefully be helpful for you.
When you’re feeling incredibly sore in the early days of c-section recovery, knowing when you can get back to everyday activities after c-section can help you see the road ahead. But let’s start understanding wound healing.
C-Section Recovery: The 4 Stages of Wound Healing
Recovering from a c-section is a journey, and knowing what’s happening inside your body can give you reassurance along the way. Your incision heals in four natural stages, each with its own role in recovery.
1. Hemostasis (Immediate to 1–3 Days)
Right after surgery, your body works quickly to stop bleeding. Blood vessels tighten, platelets form a clot, and a protective scab begins to cover the wound.
2. Inflammation (Up to 6 Days)
In this phase, your immune system steps in like a clean-up crew, fighting bacteria, removing debris, and protecting against infection. You might notice some swelling, redness, or tenderness, which are normal signs of healing.
3. Proliferation (Days 4–24)
Now your body starts rebuilding from the inside out. Fresh collagen and new blood vessels create healthy granulation tissue, slowly strengthening the incision. This is when the wound begins to feel more secure.
4. Maturation/Remodeling (Weeks to Years)
The final stage is all about strengthening and softening. Collagen fibers reorganize, the scar becomes flatter and more flexible, and over time it blends more naturally with your skin. This process can continue for months, even up to two years.
What influences c-section wound healing rates?
Like any wound, c-section healing time depends on how your wound heals. This is influenced by lifestyle factors like smoking, and chronic illnesses like diabetes. Lifting and straining can also impede wound closure and healing times.
It’s not just your incision site that’s healing during c-section recovery
Don’t forget, wound healing is just one part of your postnatal healing journey. Your internal placenta wound is also healing, as are all the muscles that stretched and changed during your pregnancy. Every stage of c-section recovery is your body’s way of protecting, rebuilding, and restoring. Knowing what’s normal can help you feel more confident and trust the healing process.
How Long Does C-Section Recovery Take?
At 6 weeks: Most c-section wounds will have closed, allowing you to move around your home as normal. It’s also a great time to start gentle exercises that use your muscle strength, rather than simple mobility/pain management exercises. Start very slowly and be guided by a Physiotherapist.
Examples of things you might do at home at 6 weeks post c-section:
Return to normal chores (hopefully you’ve had some time off cleaning and anything strenuous)
Be able to lift things like your washing basket carefully as long as it’s no heavier than around 6kg.
When Can I Drive After a C-Section?
At 6 weeks you might start driving again (often doctors say you can drive once you can do everything required, including braking quickly and heavily, and turning your body to check your blind spots without soreness, which is often earlier than 6 weeks) Be guided by your own doctor and midwife on this.
Safe Exercises 6 Weeks After C-Section - examples
A gentle Mums and bubs class run by a trained health professional who understands postnatal healing
Workouts at home via postnatal apps such as Empowered Motherhood Program or my C-section Recovery Course.
Gentle deep core activation such as bent knee fall out and single leg lifts
Bridges
Pelvic floor: Concentrating on relaxing your pelvic floor as much as possible between lifting exercises (women’s health physios often note relaxing (not contracting) the pelvic floor after c-section can be difficult for most women)
Returning to Activity at 12 Weeks Post C-Section
At 12 weeks you’re probably feeling pretty ready to get moving a bit more. Not that it’s easy to find the time when you’re looking after a tiny person! But if you’re feeling ready for more, now you can start doing stronger exercises. These can include more abdominal exercises, stronger leg work and arms. Don’t forget mobility though. Strength is great, but your back will be feeling very stiff from all your carrying and feeding. Incorporate some luscious thoracic mobility into your recovery. I have a video on spinal movements to ease soreness in my $29 physio-led C-section Recovery Course.
What You Can Do 12 Weeks Post C-Section at home:
Manoeuvre heavier, more awkward items if needed, like re-positioning your nursing chair or lifting your toddler.
Get up and down off the floor without soreness
Walk quickly when you need to eg. a quick rush to get out of a sudden downpour.
Safe Activity at 12 Weeks Post C-Section examples
Deeper abdominal engagement such as hovers and working up to planks
Oblique engagement such as side planks on knees
Heavier leg work such as lunges and squats (eg. in a Mums and bubs barre class)
12 Weeks Post C-Section: Understanding Muscle Recovery and Strength
It’s so great you’re feeling stronger at 12 weeks. Please remember though, your body still has a long way to go. Being excited to get moving is fantastic and will help you recover well, but try not to expect to be back to normal. The 9 months of pregnancy and breastfeeding do everything from thin and lengthen the rectus abdominal muscles, to change the makeup of your muscles. Enjoy feeling your body is ready for more and get moving! But remember Postnatal recovery takes a minimum of 6 months, and most people say your muscles won’t be ready for heavy strength work until you stop breastfeeding. Strengthening during this period is important as it makes your body more able to care for you bub. You’ll be tired, so you need strong muscles to help move you around the world!
C-Section Recovery: Why Your Muscles Need Gentle, Gradual Training (it’s science)
After giving birth, your estrogen levels drop sharply, which can temporarily reduce muscle strength and slow protein synthesis, making it harder for muscles to adapt quickly to exercise. This also affects connective tissues, including your pelvic floor and abdominal muscles, which may feel softer and tire more easily. The good news is your body is ready to rebuild and grow stronger.
Gradually returning to gentle core, pelvic floor, and low-impact strength exercises helps your muscles recover safely, restore ligament elasticity, and regain confidence and resilience at your own pace.
Cool fact it’s not just muscles that change: Did you know it takes years for the brain and hormonal changes linked to pregnancy and birth to settle? And even then most of these changes are life long?
When Can I Start Walking After a C-Section?
That first walk after a c-section feels like a momentous task, and deserves huge celebration! And there’s no specific guideline on when you can try it. But in general, you can try a walk around the block in week 1. You can try a slightly longer walk after 2 weeks. And you can try a hill walk or walk for exercise around week 6. Just remember your endurance will be much lower than usual, so plan to take it extra easy. If you do a shorter loop you can always do a second loop. It’s a far better option than walking too far and getting sore, knowing you need to walk all the way home. Taking the pram in the early weeks is a good option as it gives you extra stability and is less tiring than the front pack.
Wondering “when can I walk after a c-section?” even around home? Start ASAP
DVT is a real concern after c-section, so walking around your hospital room as soon as your catheter is out is important. Once you’re home, getting up and about, and mobilising between rooms is vital to prevent DVT. Wearing compression stockings or ‘TED” stockings is also very helpful in week 1-2. You may also be discharged with a medication like Clexane to prevent DVT.
How to Care for Your Toddler After a C-Section (Without Lifting or Straining)
Being told to take it easy after your c-section makes sense, but when you have a little toddler to care for it’s much harder. In my case, I was lucky my eldest was three by the time my second was born, so she was able to climb into her carseat and walk most distances without needing me to lift and carry her. But! If your little person is younger or needs more help, this is where you may need to be inventive.
Toddler Care Tips for C-Section Recovery
Set up a step stool so your toddler can climb onto the couch or cuddle on your feeding chair while you’re feeding.
Consider using audiobooks when you need a rest. I find bluetooth headphones an absolute lifesaver. Spotify has fantastic Disney storytimes and other great audiobooks for kids. Of course, we all use TV when we need to, but audio is a great option when you know your little one has had enough screen time.
Sit on the floor with them instead of lifting them up for playtime once you’re able to get on and off the ground without pain.
Use kitchen helper or toddler towers so your little one can get up to watch you at the bench without being lifted
Use the front pack once you’re able to, so you can put your eldest in the pram. Don’t overdo it though. Keep distances short until you’re not sore when you use it. Using the ‘pad in your waistband’ trick is great - details in my C-section recovery course.
Involve your toddler in caring for the baby with safe, simple “helper” jobs.
FAQ: Can I Pick Up My Toddler After a C-Section?
Many mums wonder “When can I safely lift my toddler after a C-section?” The answer depends on your healing and your doctor or physiotherapist’s guidance. In general, it’s safest to avoid lifting heavy loads for at least the first 6 weeks, while your incision and core muscles recover. Instead, use safe alternatives like the suggestions above to engage with your toddler without straining your body. Gradually, as your strength returns, you can reintroduce gentle lifting with proper technique.
How to know if you’ve overdone it after c-section
Overdoing it after c-section is easy to do, especially when you’re looking after other kids as well as your new bub. But it’s important to listen to your body and let yourself recover so your recovery overall doesn’t drag on. Simple signs you’ve overdone it are:
Slight increased in vaginal bleeding (Important note: If your bleeding soaks through one pad in one hour or more, seek immediate medical help)
Increased soreness and awareness around your wound (This should be able to be managed by pain medication. If not seek help)
Knowing what’s normal and what’s not after c-section is tricky. But trust your gut, and if you’re worried and think you’ve really overdone it, contact your doctor or midwife. General guidance on what’s normal and what’s not can be found in my c-section recovery course. For a personalised c-section recovery journey, seeing a physiotherapist, particularly a women’s health physiotherapist, is advised.
Final Thoughts: C-Section Recovery is a Journey, Not a Race
Recovering from your c-section is just one tiny part of your life after cesarean, as all your energy and thought is going towards caring for your new tiny person and learning how to be a Mum. Your postnatal healing journey is unique to you and your body, but having a general idea of your healing milestones can help you keep moving and aiming for gentle movement goals. If you need c-section recovery support, or know someone who wants to have a positive c-section recovery, invest in my $29 NZD c-section recovery course. I can’t wait to share unique insights, movement videos, and handy downloadable PDFs to help you recover gently, positively and powerfully in this incredible period of your life.
Most of all? Congratulations on your beautiful baby.

Why Your Back and Neck Are Sore Workshop at Aro-ha & Align Pilates Seminar
In Queenstown, people are feeling great now that spring is here. As a Holistic Physiotherapist, I've noticed a big change in my patients. They have more energy and are more motivated. Even those with small niggles they have ignored all winter are coming to me for help to feel better and move better. It's incredible to see this positive change in my patients and the people at recent events. Here's a quick summary of two spring gatherings I was inspired to speak at, and what you missed.
Negative Self Talk & Storytelling - What happens when we change one story we tell about ourselves at Align Pilates
Emma, owner of Align Pilates, asked me to speak at her Spring Equinox event which celebrates the renewal of springtime. I was so thrilled to share this science-based talk about how mindset drives ability. I shared two specific stories about my patients (names and details changed for privacy) to share that the stories we tell ourselves can change our abilities, relationships and thoughts.
For example, isn’t it strange how we’re so quick to believe our negative self-talk? And this talk becomes a story we believe is real and true?
eg. You eat a whole bag of chips, so you’re worthless.
Now only one part of this story is true: The chip-eating. But we find it hard to distinguish between what’s a true story, and what our brain has created.
Below is 1 slide from the seminar to show that this negative storytelling/self-talk isn’t real at all. It’s just a story our brain has created for us.
We ended the workshop with an activity. The audience had to picture their future lives without repeating negative stories to themselves.
Could you imagine your life without negative self-talk? It’d be pretty great right?
2. Why Your Back and Neck Get Sore (& No It’s Not Your Fault) at Aro-Ha Wellness Retreat
Last Saturday I taught a community workshop at the notorious luxury wellness retreat Aro-ha. Blending science with holistic strategies, we discussed the anatomy and physiology of the spine and common reasons why spinal pain is so common. And yep, you guessed it: It’s not your fault! Spinal pain is an unfortunate feature of modern life.
The key takeaway was that spinal pain doesn’t have to be scary and complicated. And there is no quick fix. We all need to work on our spinal health. But there are a few key things we can do to create real change.
Below are the 4 main points I repeated throughout the workshop, and into the movement class.
How will you enhance your health this spring?
Now’s the time to set a challenge for yourself. It can be small, like ‘take 5 deep breaths when I get to my desk every morning’ or big ‘run 5kms 3 times a week.’ But use the energy of spring to kickstart your health goal whatever it is.
Want help with your wellness?
Join my community and you’ll get my quarterly health and wellness tips and tricks, plus you’ll hear about any of my upcoming events.
Happy Spring!
Viking Sun - What it's like as a visiting practitioner on the world's best cruise ship
Earlier in 2018 I was invited to be a visiting practitioner on the Viking Sun Cruise ship for part of its maiden voyage around the world from the USA to Sweden.
Floating Oasis with a Liv Nordic Spa
As soon as I stepped onboard the brand new ship, I was blown away by the huge open lobby, breathtaking staircase and clean Scandinavian design of the ship.
The Explorer's lounge on Viking Sun
Gleaming white floors led the way to the light blue carpet of reception where I checked in, and was promptly walked to the spa reception to meet the incredible spa manager and international team.
Spacious luxury and Scandinavian design
From the flawless Liv Nordic spa reception I wandered passed the huge gym with vast windows facing out to sea and up the wide, open staircase to my floor. Having never set foot on a cruise ship before, I was surprised to see how long the hallways were, they seemed never ending!
Eventually I found my ‘stateroom,’ the name for a hotel room on a cruise ship. I had expected a small, boxy room akin to hotel rooms in Japan, but it was far more spacious. In keeping with the ship's Norwegian roots, everything was beautifully furnished in blonde wood or soft blue, and a stunning Norweigian blanket was folded over the end of the bed.
Health and wellness was easy to find on Viking sun
Healthy food was easy to find on the Viking Sun, which was the perfect addition to the wellness spa, fitness and therapy options offered at the Liv Nordic Spa (including my sessions of course!)
The restaurant on the seventh floor offered a huge range of food; my favourites were the fresh berries and yoghurt, scrambled eggs, mushrooms and gluten free toast. The lunch salad bar upstairs on the seventh floor, and gluten free bolognese from Manfredi’s, the Italian restaurant were my favourites. I was thrilled to see how easy the Viking Sun made access to good, nourishing food for each and every guest. For others with coelic disease like myself, Viking SUn even offers gluten free waffles in Mamsen's cafe.
My Holistic Physiotherapy lectures drew a crowd
Over the next three weeks I lectured about my favourite topics to crowds of at least 30 guests. As most of the guests were at least 60 years young, the topics were focused around the wellness of ageing including:
- Protecting joints as you age
- 5 easy ways to say strong in daily life
- How to eat for health
- 5 stretches you can do to move better
- The one thing you need to know about back pain
I’m so passionate about the topics above, and after seeing the crowds my lectures drew, it turned out the guests of Viking Sun were too!
I taught morning Pilates classes on the pool deck every few days and I was blown away by how motivated the attendees were. Most were women, in their 60’s and 70’s who had never tried Pilates before, but they attended every class during three weeks. They went from complete beginners to strong side plankers in just three weeks!
I was so inspired by the dedication of the guests. They were so interested to learn how they could continue living well as they aged.
From private Pilates classes to holistic Physiotherapy sessions, I worked with so many wonderful people on the Viking Sun. I had an exceptional experience on The Viking Sun with Liv Nordic, it was a visiting practitioner posting with a nautical edge. I'm so grateful to the Liv Nordic team for inviting me to join the Viking Sun as a visiting practitioner.

My journey as a Holistic Physiotherapist in Bali, Thailand & India 2016/2017
I've been so lucky to be invited to host retreats and practice holistic Physiotherapy around Asia in the past 6 months. Check out my experiences!
It was so special to be invited to these stunning places, but to enjoy the amazing healthy-yet-delicious food, take part in the meditation sessions and learn from other visiting practitioners was just unimaginably eye-opening for me. The plush rooms and perfect surroundings made it extra enjoyable too. Check out these world-class retreats in India, Thailand and Bali.
1. Visiting practitioner at Chiva Som, Thailand
My first invitation was to do a short residency at Chiva Som, Thailand. A favourite of royalty around the world (there was a Princess staying there while I was there...I won't say who!) Chiva Som is a complete wellness escape with everything from a hair salon, to Watsu pool, yoga pavillion, world-class international wellness cuisine and very popular water aerobics classes!
Chiva Som already have a Physiotherapy department, but they don't have any Western practitioners, and they saw an opportunity to expand their offerings. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to treat the senior executives of the resort, and of course experience the beautiful food they're famous for.
I offered treatments for injuries, poor posture, general stiffness and soreness, and gave solutions for healthy ageing; all the the stunning surrounds of the Chiva Som spa.
2. Visiting Master at Ananda Spa, India
After Thailand I flew to Northern India to one of the world's original spiritual places, the foot of the Himalayas, where Oprah, Uma Thurman and countless other celebs have retreated from their lives - to Ananda Spa, Rishikesh.
I was so honoured to be invited to practice at this infamous retreat (which is also the Maharaja's summer palace) and learned so much about Easter medicine, meditation, Ayurveda, philosophy and other therapies from the other masters.
My treatment rooms were in the luscious Ananda Spa, using the signature Ananda oils and brilliant grounds for pilates coaching. I worked on everything from shoulder impingement injuries to thoracic stiffness, chronic low back pain, knee pain and everything in between.
Discover more about my holistic Physiotherapy treatments at Ananda here.
3. Visiting practitioner at Svarga Loka, Bali
In February 2017, I was asked to be a holistic practitioner at a beautiful wellness hotel in the jungle of Ubud, Bali. This hotel may not cater to celebrities, but it's the perfect place to escape the grind and completely retreat to nature amongst Tomb Raider-esque ruins and luscious trees.
I treated some guests repeatedly over my time there, with everything from yoga-induced injuries for those on active retreats, to sore back, acute disc injuries, wry neck, muscle strain, and headache.
I'm so lucky I've had these experiences and for everything I've learned in these world-class wellness escapes. Now I've combined everything I've learned into my existing events, including the Melbourne One Day Wellness Retreat on June 17th. Book your spot below!
What is Holistic Physiotherapy?
Holistic Physiotherapy blends evidence-based physiotherapy with research-based mindfulness, meditation, breathing and movement. It mixes the proven aspects of Eastern wellness with the existing science of Physiotherapy.
How is it different to normal physiotherapy?
Treatment times are 60 mins or 90 mins (not 30 minutes)
Breathing is a central part of the patient's experience
Hands-on treatments are in a luxurious setting including quality essential oils, and five-star spa centres at luxury wellness resorts.
Movement-based Pilates and rehabilitation sessions are set in picturesque outdoor settings within the wellness resorts
Each session includes time for the patient to ask questions about their injury or concern, and receive exercises to maintain their health and movement long into the future
Mindset, the patient's view of their body and injury, and their understanding is central to the treatment
I created my holistic Physiotherapy techniques thanks to my experience breaking my back in an accident, and luckily making a full recovery. Through my own injury experience, I realised traditional medical care didn't give me enough support to recovery fully, so I looked elsewhere and now practice what I learned. Read more about my experience here.
