Re: Working out while pregnant

[Guest guest]

I walk my treadmill a litle here and there but I have a bad groin hernia that

gets really large if I do too much so I can do very little right now. I hope

to get it repaired after the baby comes so I can get right back on that

treadmill and get rid of the extra weight...

Hey Chrystal!

I have been working out three times a week at Curves since last

March, and I have continued to do so throughout my pregnancy. I

also bowl in a league once a week. I sure hope it helps during the

labor to be in shape. I can't help but think it will- at least I'd

like to stay under that delusion if that's what it is! LOL! I know

if nothing else, I FEEL better, have better energy after I work out,

and it gives me a very improved state of mind knowing I'm doing

something healthy for me.

I am about 10 weeks pregnant and I exercise 5 mornings a week. I have skipped a

day here and there and I can sure tell a difference. When I don't exercise, I

am ready to pass out by 7pm. Everything I have ever learned or read states

moderate exercise throughout pregnancy is best. My aeorbics instructor just had

a baby and she taught throughout her pregnancy and said labor was a piece of

cake.

Keep it up and I bet you'll notice a big difference.

Working out while pregnant

I was removed from bedrest yesterday and immediately went to the gym to start

back on my exercise routine. I started slow - just riding the stationary bike

for 30 minutes on a low level. But I felt good cause I was back to my exercise

pattern.

How many of you exercise everyday or so many times a week? Have you found its

made a difference in your pregnancy.

Those of you who have had your babies already did exercise make a difference

in your labor and delivery?

I did not exercise at all when I was over 300 pounds and pregnant with my son

4 years ago so I have no reference.

Any thoughts on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
