Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to test whether or not activity restrictions after a cesarean section are warranted and if exercise can improve postpartum wellness. This research study is being done because there is no science-based evidence to support postpartum activity restrictions after cesarean sections.
Participants will be randomly placed into one of the following study groups:
* Standard postpartum and post-operative instructions group: activity restrictions, including no strenuous exercise, sexual intercourse, or lifting objects greater than 25 pounds for 6 weeks or until evaluation at the 6 week postpartum visit
* Study group: Structured 10 week exercise protocol consisting of core strengthening exercises (concentrating on the abdominal, gluteal, and pelvic areas), breathing exercises, and diaphragm exercises.
