thanks so much for all your knowledge, and also the encouragement. I will be looking into 3 wheelers so I can get into training.]]> Mon, 21 Jul 2008 08:50:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=445042&title=jogging-with-newborn#445042 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443496&title=jogging-with-newborn#443496 Author: jaz

A three wheeled buggy should be fine. The track is probably worse than running as opposed to walking.

Personally I wouldn't put my body under that kind of stress if I'd just given birth. Also if you are breast feeding you may not be putting the energy into producing milk. I found day to day activity and a reasonable walk was enough for me 8 weeks after giving birth and I often had to have a lie down after lunch to build up the energy and milk supply for evening and night feeds.

Good luck with the run though. ]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 20:00:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443496&title=jogging-with-newborn#443496 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443272&title=jogging-with-newborn#443272 Author: katie1

I second good on you! Will be great if she can sleep while you train - a win-win all around. Mountain buggies are great for jogging and like Andie said just make sure she is nice and warm. All the best with your training!]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 16:27:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443272&title=jogging-with-newborn#443272 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443100&title=jogging-with-newborn#443100 Author: Andie

So long as the stroller is 3-wheels with the front wheel able to swivel, and has suspension, it'll be fine! You might need to use a storm cover over it so that the cool air rushing past baby doesn't get to be too much, since she's so young. Good on ya, by the way!]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:56:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443100&title=jogging-with-newborn#443100 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443053&title=jogging-with-newborn#443053 Author: emz

Mountain buggy or Phil n Teds would be good. Ours is a 3-wheeler, but its not that easy to run with.

I walked (and partially ran) the city2surf when Jack was almost 3 months, he was fine. In fact he loved it (the vibration got him off to sleep). Dh has run with him with no problems when he was little.]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:22:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=443053&title=jogging-with-newborn#443053 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=442966&title=jogging-with-newborn#442966 Author: MyBelly

as long as she is warm and has one of those head rest thingys i wouldnt think there would be a problem jogging, she might actually like the vibration so maybe doing it around her nap time could work in for both of you? as for the stroller, im not too helpful there, my MIL bought ours and its crap and i cant walk with it barely let alone run! maybe a mountain buggy or a phil and teds? i have heard phil and teds are fantastic.

good luck for your marathon, your better than i would be!]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 11:18:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=442966&title=jogging-with-newborn#442966 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19234&PID=442757&title=jogging-with-newborn#442757 Author: maltese

I have a 8 week old, and I have committed to running a marathon on 2 November-eek!

Can anyone tell me if I can run with such a young baby? I am worried the vibration might be a bit much for her?

If I can run with her, can I have recommendations on the best stroller for the job. I will only be running around the streets and in Hagley Park.

TIA
