Would you still continue your regular exercise routine when you're ttc? Ex: Zumba, cardio, weightlifting, and kickboxing class?

Question

Been feeling guilty about my usual workout routines, every time the 2WW comes along I feel I should slow it down. What do you guys think? Exercise gets my mind off of things.

Answer

Been wrestling with this too!  Just feel that hardcore workouts don't make sense when I think of it logically when TTC but doctors say if you're healthy you should be fine...female intuition here is what I'm going with though but I'm also feeling super guilty for cutting back on the workouts

Answer

I've wondered the same and during the tww I barely do anything for fear of messing things up or not allowing them to stick. But we've been ttc for over a year and now I feel like I've stopped all my hobbies and am suffering as a result. And it makes the tww a LOT longer b/c of all the things I don't do. I'm sure many people contine and do just fine but I'm too paranoid.

Answer

Yesssss!!! Exercise is so good for you and baby! And the better shape you're in during pregnancy the easier L&D will be. Unless your doctor restricts you, the rule of thumb is whatever exercise you can comfortably and safely do.
