Working out while pregnant?

Question

Is it safe to lift weights while you're pregnant? I'm 9w5d and I use to workout a lot up until this year...I stopped for a bit because of time and I heard it makes it harder to get pregnant.. Is it safe to do while pregnant? I don't want to harm the baby! Especially in the scary first trimester!

Answer

You can maintain whatever exercise routine you had before getting pregnant. Your ob might suggest modifying weight lifting. Mine suggested I reduce weight but said I could increase reps if I wanted.

Answer

If you've been doing it before you were pregnant then you can do it while your pregnant. Just not as much weight

Answer

Do what makes you comfortable. I competed in a powerlifting meat at 7 weeks with my last pregnancy... Baby was just fine. Kept on lifting until 3 days before he was born.
