Anybody know if the postpartum recovery time is changing for new acft?

First off.... right now (in my opnion) is the worst to be pregnant within the army. This is my second child and I'm due in may. With my first the 6 months of recovery time almost wasnt enough (couldnt get my situps where I needed them) and adding to that I had a C-section so my recovery was completely different than a natural birth. Having this baby in may puts me eligible for a pt test in October, conveniently enough that's also when the ACFT is a full blown go. This will be a repeat c section and during pregnancy there is no way to train your body to do these events. The generic profile you get limits you to 20lbs. Yes there is a P3T program, as a instructor of that I am fully aware of what you can and cannot do. However, this entire year soldiers like myself have not been able to train for this and I honestly feel like we are now set up for failure, simply because of the timing of having a baby. I am wanting to know if there is any new regulation over this? I've asked and asked and searched and searched and have not found anything. I also wanted to know if there is a POC for these concerns? A survey or anything? I need hard answers not just opinions. We are expected to have 3 months to train up on a test that the rest of the army has had an entire year for.
I also do not think that getting a profile is the answer to this either.
