If you are having trouble finding time to incorporate an exercise routine while taking care of your new baby, the best solution may be to incorporate your baby into your exercise routine.
I hope to get feedback from others on exercises they do with their kids. For now, my first suggestion is to jog with your baby. I wouldn't suggest a baby carrier for this activity because it will definitely not be that comfortable for you or your baby.
The stroller I use to take my baby for a jog is the Baby Jogger - City Select. It has great rear wheels that are of decent size to allow for stability while incorporating smaller front wheels to allow you to maneuver around corners very easily.
Initially my baby was able to use the car seat adapter to accompany me. As he is now over six months old and has good head control, he fits comfortably into the regular stroller seat.
While I push the stroller along, he has a great time looking around at the surroundings. The cars, birds, trees and other landscape are within his view.
So, as he gets a breath of fresh air, I get a nice 15 - 20 minute jog. At least 3 days a week and I meet my aerobics quota. Now only if I could figure out a weight routine with him...let's see what I can figure out in my next set of posts.
