Any pregnany Runners?!???

Question

So yesterday I took a 3 mile run with inclination... So my breathing was a little stronger/heavier then normal. Can this hurt the baby? Ugh I can't shake OFF the feeling that I might have hurt it in any way... Advise, please! 😢😢

Answer

You should be fine if you were a runner before pregnancy. I was a runner before I found out, and when I did get a positive, I kept running. I have stopped and will occasionally either jog or go for long walks because I started bleeding. My doctor said it could have been from over exertion but I was clear to continue running as long as I didn't over exert myself or make myself overheat. Have fun running! I am jealous!

Answer

I'm a runner and was afraid to keep going when I found out I was pregnant. I waited for my 8 week appointment to ask my doc and he said as long as I'm not running marathons to just go easy. Also said if I'm running to hydrate so much my pee must be clear 😉

Answer

They say when you start breathing hard, or losing breathe that means the baby is too. Didn't hear that from a doctor just read it online, but it does make some sense.

Answer

I ran my first marathon in March last year. My last race was a 10 miler at the end of January. When we started TTC I was afraid running that much would hurt my chances of getting pregnant, so I scaled back to 1-3 days/wk. I'm now 5wks and I've done 5 miles at the most (the day before we found out), but 1-2 here and there. I'm a FTM and just don't want to risk anything!

Answer

I use to run at least 2 miles everyday. Then after I became pregnant I could only run until I was 3 months along. My stomach would tighten up. My doctor okayed me to run and work out but you have to listen to your body.

Answer

Were you running that distant and running inclines before pregnancy?
