One reason to love being pregnant

A great part  of being pregnant is that when you go to the gym to work out, you don't have to do ANY ab work!! Anyone agree?

  • Gym?  What is this place you speak of?

  • :) If I ever make it back to the gym that will make me very happy!  I have been a lazy pregnant woman.

  • I have been lazy too! I have only been going once per week! I hope to get it up to 3 per week but we'll see!

  • good job getting to the gym.  My nausea goes up with my heartrate so I'm avoiding that place like the plague

  • I would agree with you, but I asked my OB about it (I actually like ab work - it's the only thing that keeps my stomach toned) - she said you can do abs up to like, 20 weeks or so. I was surprised, but it makes sense - your ab muscles aren't connected in any way to baby.
  • I like that I dont feel pressure to have crazy intense workouts everytime. I can just take it easy now! Nice break after being a gym rat for 9 months before my wedding.
  • I was just starting to really work out before we found out I was pregnant, so toning it down is ncie since I never got used to it the other way :) I try to at least walk on the treadmill every day and feel accomplished.
  • Ditto all of the lazy posts. I have been soooooooooo tired lately. Plus it's taking me longer to get through my to-do list at work, so I'm getting out later. So yeah, I haven't been to the gym in a few weeks, though my gym bag is under my desk ready to go!

  • one of my favorite parts is not having to suck in! Not that I'm always walking around sucking in.. but you know what I mean.. later on, you can just let it all hang out!!! LOL That was nice :)
