cardio challenged
I just started the 30DS 12 weeks after a c section. I'm fine to do it, was cleared at 6 weeks, but after a few days my back is sore from my gigantic milk jugs. Jumping jacks are out. Jump rope, butt kicks, most all cardio is out. I finished todays workout and just stuck to punches for cardio, but that is boring. Any other ideas of cardio workouts I can do in my living room while the baby is napping that doesn't require a lot of bouncing? Just for the next 3 months or so. I ended up doing postpartum yoga with Shiva Rea and that was nice, but I want to sweat a little without breaking my back.

This is what I was going to ask. My boobs went from a large B/small C to a freaking DDDD while I was breastfeeding. I wore two tight-fitting sports bras to limit the bouncing. I actually had really good luck with the Champion C9 they carried at Target at the time, but I've heard that they don't work as well for everyone. I would look into a more supportive sports bra, rather than giving up. I did the 30DS, too.

I just searched the Fiona and was going to get it at $30 but the reviews say that if you are larger then the Luna is better, but the Luna is $56. I only plan to breastfeed until 6 months (at 3 now) so I'm having a hard time justifying going over $30 because *fingers crossed* it will be too big soon. Right now I'm stuffing into my old sports bra. I was a 34DD before baby, but recently measured a 34H when empty. I think it's the sheer weight of these beasts reguardless of the bounce, even if they are supported. In the morning I'm able to pump 10 oz out of a side. I guess I could pump well before working out but I prefer to nurse her when she wakes up as opposed to giving her a bottle. I think I'll stick to mat pilates for a few more months. Better for getting the abs to lay flat again anyway. I think I do have on demand, I have Fios cable. I'll look into that later today.
