I ran a few miles a week and used weights before I became PG. Since I became pregnant I had nausea. It has gone away (I HOPE) and was wondering if people resumed their workout when they felt better??
I am in the same boat. By the time this nausea passes at 12 weeks (fingers crossed), it will have been almost 6 weeks since I felt like going for a run. Even without being pregnant that is enough time to lose strength and stamina.
With both my pregnancies I was told to keep my HR under 125 bpm, so that means running is out for me anyway. I will have to settle for walking hills or the elliptical trainer. I've really noticed an decreased lung capacity with this pregnancy so I'm not sure I could handle it anyway.
If someone has been able to get back to running I would love to hear about it too. That would be so encouraging.
