Energy to workout?

Question

How do all you mommies and soon to be mommies find the energy to workout? I'm 4w and 4d and I'm putting in about 9 hour shifts. I usually don't get a nap during the day so I'm super tired and on my days off I don't want to do anything but nap. Any ideas to help?

Answer

I just have to force myself to do it some days. I usually do it when my son naps (I’m a sahm) I do about an hour of yoga everyday. If I was a working mom though I don’t think I’d be able to!

Answer

During my first trimester I felt the same way. Sooooo tired working 10 hour shifts at Trader Joe’s. Now I’m just trying to walk on my days off and not really worrying about doing anything extra during the work week bc I’ve been too wiped. Good luck girl!

Answer

It's hard but I just forced myself. In my situation I felt the same amount of fatigue whether I napped or not, worked out or not. So forcing myself to workout didn't make me feel any more tired, it made me feel accomplished 💪🏻
In my first trimester i actually ended up setting a PR for my 10k. 🏃🏼‍♀️

Answer

Didn’t really work out in the first trimester. You’ll feel better in the 2nd

Answer

It was hard in the beginning but just make sure you take time for it.  In a few more weeks you’ll feel better.
It’s super important for health to have an active lifestyle especially in pregnancy.  Talk to your doctor if you aren’t already active for suggested classes or activities.  You’ll feel better soon:)
