Is it too late?

Question

I'm 31wk 1da and am wondering if it's too late to start excercising to help with labor/toning up? Will it pay off? I had high goals at the beginning and being fatigued and having lots of hip pain I kinda slacked and now here I am getting close and want to try to keep it up the rest the time! Tips or suggestions

Answer

You can definitely do light stuff like walking and yoga. Lifting weights or doing heavier exercise wouldn’t be a great idea since you haven’t been that active for the whole pregnancy. However any light activity will benefit you!

Answer

Try walking and prenatal yoga as both can help you prepare for labor and baby. You can search YouTube by trimester for the yoga. Also be sure to listen to your body. If it feels like too much, take a rest, skip that move, or stop.

Answer

yes! better physical activity prepares you for an easier labor / birth! the people who say not to - thats not true lol. its always suggested to be active.

Answer

Probably not the best idea. High heart rate, high blood pressure and risks of preterm labor. Just walk and drink water. And do bounce on the birthing ball 🌸
