Working out when sooo fatigued!?!?

Question

Hi ladies!! I am 9 weeks today and have not had many symptoms besides a ton of fatigue! It’s been hard for me to work out with out having to nap for an extended time after. Anyone in the same boat?/what have you had to do to modify workouts? Also here are some pictures from our ultrasound at 8 weeks 3 days! Curious as well to see if anyone has any predictions! Heart rate 147! Thanks in advance!

Answer

I feel ya. I have extreme nausea (not actually throwing up) and the fatigue is seriously real. I sleep 10-12 hours at night and still have to take a nap. I workout five days a week still. I’m doing the exact same things I did prior to working out, although it’s a lot harder. I have just lowered the amount of weight I’m lifting and do as much as I can. I don’t push myself like I used to. My workouts are still hard but not nearly as intense. I know once the second trimester begins, I will feel myself again and I don’t want to lose too much muscle because I didn’t put in some effort for the first 13 weeks. This is my second pregnancy and I did the same with my first and I honestly had the quickest, smoothies labor and I think it was because I was active up until the day I went into labor. Just keep pushing through. It’ll be good for you and baby!
