I am from the US and not familiar with what a stone is compared to a pound. What is the sw plan? Congratulations on your baby how exciting!

Hi Tia, I started running using the C25K app it really does work, had to repeat some weeks but would definitely recommend. There is a Facebook page that you can ask to join where lots of support and tips from everyone. One tip I would give is if you do enjoy running then go to a specialist running shop and get trainers there, really does keep injuries down. Happy running 🏃🏻 Jen x
