Take some walks outside with your new stroller to get some fresh air. Most babies respond well to the rhythm of the stroller, the fresh air, and changing light. Don’t push yourself too hard the first month.
C-Section sisters, no brisk walking for you, but you need to get outside. Have someone take you and your little bundle to a place other than your house for a change of scenery.
My first walk was 2 blocks. Literally. One out, one back. Take it easy.

In addition to the stroller a sling has been working very well for us. We have a peanut shell, http://goo-ga.com, which is very comfortable and will transition with our baby as she gets older. Luckily we have a local food co-op with a large outdoor seating area. When the weather is nice we have been picking up some drinks and a snack and just hanging out for a bit. Anywhere outside of the house gives us a huge boost in morale.
