exercise
I recently found out I'm expecting and according to my clinic they have me at about 7 weeks based on my last cycle. I have an appointment in a week however, I'm wondering what are good exercises to do and to avoid, and what is doing to much? Thanks.
Early on in your pregnancy you can basically follow your pre-baby workout routine at a lower intensity. It is important to keep your heart rate lower, but you should be able to maintain the same activities (Lifting,running, etc.) into the second trimester. The key is to listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain. I ran until about 26 weeks and did sit ups through the first trimester and feel like that has been a large part of my complication free pregnancy (so far at least). I am 38Wks+2.
