Is it safe to do sit ups late 1st/early 2nd trimester for light exercise? I used to do them, but in the months before being pregnant I hadnt.

Question

Answer

My OB advised I stop

Answer

I would say if it's not something you had been doing a lot before getting pregnant I wouldn't start now. They aren't going to help anything anyway lol little one is going to stretch your stomach muscles out regardless

Answer

I'm 32 weeks and it seems every time I get up to do anything it's a sit up 😧

Answer

I was told no abdominal exercises.

Answer

I'm 22 weeks and still do them. Haven't had any issues yet. I think when my belly gets a little bigger though I may have to stop.

Answer

Second trimester is when they recommend you stop laying on your back, so I would imagine a sit up is a no no.
