Working Out After C-section

Hi i had 4 weeks ago my 5th child and i lost in the first 3 weeks 24 lbs. Which i apriciate, but now nothing happens with my weight. After my c-section, i got an infection and went to the doc. He had to open up the incision a little, so the poss and blood could drain out. Now it's finally healed and i liked to work out. But i'm a little scared to do so.
