Zumba while pregnant?

Question

A month ago, I had been doing Zumba about 4 days a week for my fitness routine for almost a year. I stopped for a month because of fasting that I was doing. I just found out I was pregnant a few days ago, and started back Zumba again today.

Do you all think it safe to still do my Zumba classes, even though I had taken a month off? Will this count as starting all over again exercising?

I know that some exercise is safe if your body is already used to it. But idk if my body is still used to the Zumba. I'm only 4 weeks along according to my calculations.

Answer

I say if you can do it, do it! Exercise is GREAT for you and baby!

Answer

I did Zumba my whole pregnancy with the exception of the first trimester when I was just too tired. You'll be fine but you should get clearance from your dr

Answer

I Zumba at 27 weeks. It's great exercise. I let my instructor know that I was pregnant so she could tell me if there's anything I shouldn't be doing. So far so good though. Belly does get in the way sometimes though lol.

Answer

Zumba will be totally fine. Just modify as necessary throughout your pregnancy. Even if you aren't telling people about the pregnancy yet, I would highly recommend at least telling your instructor so she can keep an eye on you.

Answer

I know some instructors don't allow pregnant women in their classes. Others don't care. But, you should be totally fine. Just listen to your body and modify any moves that feel uncomfortable. I do Zumba at home, and I just don't do any jumping, and I take lots of breaks, and I'm in my third trimester.
