Working out????😶😶😶

Question

Hi ladies I have a question, how many of you ladies workout and feel good?  I'm 4w/6days and I was pretty active before getting pregnant. I ran about 2-3 miles daily and just recently lost about 20 pounds. But now every time I tried to even walk for a few minutes I pelvic pain and I am so exhausted. Any tips???

Answer

34 weeks and still weightlifting 3-5x a week! Lots of cardio and hiking, too.

First trimester is rough, especially if you're dealing with morning sickness. All I can say is to listen to your body - keeping up a workout routine through pregnancy has been hard, and required a ton of flexibility on my part. Some times my brain said "you'd better..." But my body said "...probably shouldn't." and so I had to change my plans. :/

I've dealt with some pretty bad sciatica and PGP in all three trimesters, but it's still possible to stay active despite that if you're in touch with what your body is telling you that it needs. Yoga, nightly stretching, warm baths with lots of Epsom salts and trips to the massage therapist are all necessities, not luxuries, if you wanna stay active through the discomfort.

You can 100% do this! Just take it slow, don't push yourself and listen to your body. It knows what's best!

Answer

I do gentle yoga on days I hurt and I also use my exercise ball to strengthen my pelvic floor muscles and stretch out my pelvis.
