I was curious do you go to an all women gym? or is there other pregnant women working out? I want to start back going but not sure what kind of gym is right for me, honestly, I don't want to be the only pregnant woman there!
I go to a co-ed gym! I workout when prego and went to the gym too and it was fine. Honestly you don't see many pregos at the gym in my experience but remember you are there for you and no one else!
I'm a member at the Y and went when I was pregnant. I got a few looks towards the end of my pregnancy when I was the size of a hippo, but for the most part people left me alone.
I also went to a prenatal yoga class which was wonderful. Not only for the yoga, but for the community of pregnant women. I miss it!
I went to a very small all female gym up until I was 36 weeks pregnant. (stopped because of awful sciatic pain) According to the owner/trainer, I am the only pregnant woman at her gym that has made it that far. Most people were very supportive and curious about my pregnancy, but I did occasionally get some strange looks. Usually, it was the older women who didn't think I should be working out.
