I think it really depends on what your doctor says. My second I was cleared at 4 weeks. I was very sore my second time around. I also had 2u2. They’re 22 months apart.

I didn’t follow any advice because I couldn’t not pick my toddler up, or not drive.
I just waited 3-4 weeks and only drove and picked up my toddler when I needed to

I have been back driving since 5 weeks pp though I am a FTM. I know a mum of twins that had a C-section and had a toddler that was driving at 4.5 weeks and lifted both twins in car seats because she has to for appointments and going anywhere.
It also doesn't on your recovery though and what you feel ready to do. Gently try things and if you feel you can do it great, if it feels too much and you have the option to wait a little longer for that particular thing then also great 😊
