Working out in the 1st trimester?

Question

Hey ladies so background of me.. I used to workout 1-2 times a day weights in morning and cardio at night. I have extremely cut back since finding out I was pregnant.. what is considered okay for working out while in the first trimester?
30 min cardio?
Low weights? 
I know they say continue your normal life but I don’t want a risk of miscarriage

Answer

I had started crossfit in October last year and became pregnant April this year. It was just over 6 months of 3 times a week and I am by no means an “athlete” (I do believer women who are used to it can definitely continue). I was so nervous in the beginning (along with sick and tired) I stopped all together for 3 weeks. Then I saw my OB and she said to keep going, I asked on here and ladies agreed. Since then I’ve managed to go 2 times a week & it feels great! I scale everything, don’t lift heavier than 40 pounds but cardio and squats are great for you. I’m 22 weeks and so far, so good! Do what feels right for you but if you are a low risk pregnancy it shouldn’t be an issue!

Answer

Do what makes you comfortable. Listen to your body and when it tells you to stop or slow down, do so. There is no exact science as very pregnancy and woman are different.
