Ab exercises?

When did you all begin doing serious ab exercises? I'm 3 months out and tried doing crunches and mountain climbers and my stomach hurts, not like the ab muscles but the same kinda pain I had immediately after surgery. I'm thinking I'm not ready for ab work yet but was wondering when everyone else was cleared to?
