This comment has given me some hope and relief!! So I am also 39 years old and found out 4 days ago I am 5 weeks pregnant without even being looking for it🙊. So I went to the gynecologist yesterday and even though I live a very healthy life style basically through all my adult life (workout 5 days a week with weights and cardio, and eat super healthy) and all my levels on the blood test are perfect, the gynecologist told me basically not to make any exercise except from steady walking😢. I have a feeling that she is just a super old school Gyno Because I just keep on reading good things about working out and staying safely active during the pregnancy. So Dr I would like to have your kind opinion about it I just want to understand if she gave me those instructions because of my age (even though I’m perfectly healthy) or just because she is a type of old school gyno and prefers pregnant women not to move during the pregnancy 😩. I feel like I will go crazy if I stay inactive during all this time 🤰🏻🥹

My first baby was born preterm and I had a miscarriage with the pregnancy before the one now. Also have anemia, had malaria twice during this pregnancy and in previous. Also had to get an emergency c-section with my first preterm labour due to my baby's heart dropping with every contraction and me not being able to dilate quick enough, even with help. Sometimes I feel like my body is broken, but Im so happy to be pregnant again and so far so good. This video helped me a lot to understand

I'm 29 and pregnant with my third (31 weeks along). I have been powerlifting for several years now and am still lifting with this pregnancy. With both of my previous pregnancies, I immediately started postpartum exercises a few days after having my babies. I have a home gym, so it was very easy for me to ease back into weight lifting. I've never had any complications with my pregnancies, so with this current one I am very confident in what I can and can't do exercise-wise. The baby dropped a couple of days ago. This completely changed the game with deadlifting (changed from conventional to sumo), so I'm still doing the same exercises, just changing my set up/range of motion, etc.

Now that I’m pregnant I notice I am much slower in my workouts, I have to take a lot of more breaks due to getting dizzy. Yesterday I took a 3 mile walk and it was rough! I had to take breaks and cut the walk early to lay down and rest. I’m trying to keep movement throughout the week but I’m learning it’s super important to listen to your body because I think some people definitely can’t do the same thing they used to.

I know a couple ladies who ran a LOT and another who lifted weights with barbells throughout and they had very healthy babies. The key is to not jump into exercise during pregnancy that is way more intense than what you were doing before being pregnant, plus really pay attention to how you feel throughout. Studies show that exercise during pregnancy is actually very beneficial. I am about finished reading a book on these very studies. If you workout intensely before, you can continue. Otherwise start out slowly into moderate exercise, like said in this video. I lift and run and am about to start my second trimester. However, I just discovered prenatal yoga and that feels SO good! Stay healthy, ladies!❤

I had a Cerclage in w24. I have been doing weight training for the past 10 years, stopped till I entered week 32 and then slowly started to exercise again. They removed the Cerclage in week 37. I’m in week 40 now, doing my weight training and waiting for my baby! 😊

Excellent video, thank you! This is my first pregnancy and I have so many questions. Your videos are so helpful and put my mind at ease until I can meet my OB. I was a college athlete and, now 30 y/o, had lifted 3-4x/wk and walked 30min-1hr/day, 4x/wk prior to my positive pregnancy test. I was/am so nervous with so many young women around me having miscarriages, so I initially thought I shouldn’t exercise at all. My first appointment is in a few weeks, so I’m still going to wait to ensure everything looks normal before exercising remotely close to how I typically would. But this video gave me hope that I can continue with my routine soon. It greatly helps my anxiety and depression!

It's important that we do not discourage women from staying active throughout their entire pregnancy. I think it's safe to assume MOST women aren't going to put their unborn baby in danger, as it contradicts our maternal instincts. Remaining active if you were active prior to pregnancy is very important. Pregnancy, however, is not the time to BEGIN a new strenuous activity such as weightlifting, kickboxing, etc. Running, stretching, and yoga are something all moms should do during pregnancy if able.

I am 12 weeks pregnant. I work out about an hour each day because that’s what I did before pregnancy. Before pregnancy I did running, weight lifting, yoga, and Zumba. Since I have been pregnant I have kept everything up but I changed running to brisk walking or biking. I just feel tired all the time, so that’s why I switched even though my OB said I could still run if I felt up to it.

I continued to do yoga while pregnant. Now 38+2 and had to switch to prenatal, more simple yoga postures and something less dynamic. I didn’t gain any extra weight during my pregnancy and could stay flexible and active. Exercise definitely played a role in me being flexible. As for weight, I think it’s more the fact that I was eating whole food plant based diet and drinking water.

I feel you.. you are probably further in your pregnancy but I am now at 9 weeks, used to work out 5-6 times a week, could handle very intensive trainings while now I can barely find the energy to work out. And indeed the nausea is making everything even worse. I still try to push myself into at least 2-3 workouts a week and keep walking throughout the day but sometimes it is just impossible. And same with gaining, I used to eat so clean and restricted and since Im pregnant my nausea is 24/7 present and all that comforts me is carbs which I wouldnt consider eating before like rice waffles, crackers, cheesy sticks…. So difficult to accept the weight gain and in general the reduced working out routine

There have been times in my life where I’ve enjoyed running but I’ve not really felt up to that. It’s been difficult staying active because of all the tiredness but I feel happiest & most like myself after a workout so I’m sticking to it & just trying to listen to my body. Pregnancy has been going great, just nervous about preeclampsia because I know so many women will be fine all through until close to the end & then have to be induced/get a completely different birth experience from what they wanted.

22 weeks pregnant. I went to 90 minute intense yoga classes 6x per week prior to getting pregnant. I had to stop around week 8-14 when my morning sickness was terrible- I just did 10 minute stretches from the floor during that time as I hardly got out of bed. From week 14- now I am so happy I am able to be doing yoga again. I suffer from almost daily migraines without it. Now I am back up to about 5 days per week and I go to the same classes just modify the poses so that I dont push myself too hard or do anything too risky. I mostly just try to make sure my breath can be smooth through the whole class and do what I can. Hoping I can continue all the way to delivery, it has helped so much with stress, my state of mind, and my energy.

I am 13 weeks pregnant, and considered high risk. I have a "sub-chorionic hemorrhage of the placenta", which is 7.2 cm in length. It caused sudden heavy bleeding with continued daily spotting, and I suffered a "threatened miscarriage" due to it. The doctors put me pretty much on bed rest, not even light walks were allowed! That was two-ish weeks ago. I am now allowed to go on walks, and I really want to start following you-tube work out videos for pregnant women in the second trimester, but I am taking everything lightly and resting often. I used to hike 5-7 miles into the mountains often, and bike ride 10-20 miles on weekends, so being so still is hard!

Definitely I've had the experience of being able to workout consistently including weights with my first pregnancy, and then I had to stop with my second because despite remaining in the gym, once I hit the second trimester I was having contractions after a set of anything. And it was too much of a risk (nothing like doing lat pulls for 5 minutes and then having 30 minutes of contractions afterwards...). Each pregnancy can be different. Even for fit moms. May have been having closer together pregnancies, and my body was just much weaker with each subsequent pregnancy.
