Burpees and pregnancy?

Question

So two days ago I was in a class and we were doing burpees. I’m 22 weeks and I wasn’t sure if it was ok but I felt ok to do it. I came down but lightly and did my push-up pretty quickly to get up from the floor. I didn’t feel any pain after but looking back I’m not so sure I should have. Anyone know if this is bad for pregnancy?

Answer

Ask your doctor/midwife, but my thoughts are as long as you feel comfortable, you're good. I have a feeling your body will let you know if it's too much!

Answer

This isinglass short what my doctor told me regarding burpees and I also found it on the internet. Website name  fit pregnancy I believe. “If you're pregnant, there's still a way to make this powerhouse move safe. "Skip the standing jump of a burpee during pregnancy and during the time breastfeeding," Bullock says. "A hormone called relaxin is released in the body during the first trimester and stays in your body until you stop breastfeeding. This relaxes the tendons throughout the body, leaving your joints without support. Any type of jumps need to be done in a small controlled manner while breast feeding because your tendons are weak and the “pressure of the jump can cause too much pressure in the joints. You can also step back to a plank, instead of jumping back if you feel any extra pressure on the pelvic joints or hip flexors."

Answer

I don’t get why it would be but sounds terrible 😂 maybe a risk for getting lightheaded by getting up and down too quick? But you’ll know your limits!
