Still exercising?

Question

Are you still exercising regularly? If so, what are you doing and how often? I'm 34w and have been doing cardio and some weightlifting regularly (3ish times a week) up until about 2 weeks ago, but now my pelvis has really started to feel like it's getting looser and looser every day, so I've really cut back. Just curious if anyone else is still able to workout!

Answer

I haven't changed my weight lifting workouts at all but I have started walking for my cardio. I take my time between sets but I haven't adjusted the weights or excersizes at all. My doctor said to listen to my body and as long as I feel good to keep going. I've talked with a lot of personal trainer friends who said they had workouts the day they gave birth so that's my goal!

Answer

I've been swimming almost daily. It makes me feel so much better afterwards

Answer

I've been moving from one house to another for the past week. That's all the exercise I need!

Answer

Yoga 2-3 times a week. Prenatal yoga is great to build strength for labor and learn techniques for labor and moving baby into optimal birthing position. Plus the bonus of piece of mind!

Answer

I walk... 2 miles a day and then try to do squats and push ups through out the day.

Answer

No, I had gotten lazy and stopped, besides walking, I haven't done anything in a few months but I plan to begin swimming and prenatal yoga/pilates next week.

Answer

Pilates. Private 1 hr session once a week.
And walking daily (DD 10/25)

Answer

I haven't been able to really work out since 12 weeks when I tore my round ligament but I do prenatal yoga daily

Answer

Still able too (thankfully) after work will go to the gym with DH, 6x a week but just for 30 mins. Switch between treadmill walking/ jog (not fast - max 3.3 speed or as long as you can do the 'talk test'), indoor cycling, prenatal yoga with light weight. Of coz I checked with ob to make sure I should/can. Just have to listen to your body and stop when u need to or not do it if not able to. I'm currently 35 weeks.

Answer

I wanted to but lately I just can't anymore. The pressure on my bladder is too much to bear. But am starting prenatal yoga tomorrow (bit late at 33 weeks, I know...!) and I'm gonna try aqua gym for the first time next week at my local gym.
