Iifting?

Question

So I'm 7 weeks. I want to keep up my exercising, but I have a question about weights. I'm not talking about anything crazy. Maybe 5 lbs for arms and a 17 lbs weight bar for squats. When is this not safe anymore??

Answer

u r fine, as long as u were used to it prior to pregnancy u r good

Answer

Talk to your doctor... I did that much or more for arms my entire pregnancy... I stopped doing weights for legs in the third trimester just out of comfort... I couldn't lunge anymore because of severe round ligament pain and squats were tough enough without weights... but everyone is different.

Answer

You should be fine. Nothing over 50 lbs normally. Trust me I have a toddler who weighs more and am pregnant .....you'll be fine lol just trust your body and if it feels too much then back down a bit but you should be fine with those weights

Answer

As long as it’s not new to you, it’s safe until delivery unless your body tells you differently. I did regular weightlifting, so with Baby #1, I was doing 55lbs squats still at 38 weeks. Lighter than my normal. Now isn’t the time to start something new that’s intense, or go for PRs, but absolutely stay active! Just drink more water and take more breaks. 😊
