Moms who exercised during pregnancy

onu2006 · January 2011

I have always been a regular exerciser, exercised all during pregnancy with DS, and as soon as I could after he was born. Since MS kicked me on my butt this time around, I am just getting back to doing it on a regular basis, but it is MUCH more painful now. I've only been walking about 20 minutes at an incline on the treadmill, and my belly will be rock hard, and I'm pretty sure all of it together makes me feel sick.

I go to the doctor on Wednesday, so I'll be asking him as well, but thoughts? Normal? I would hate to stop all together because I know it's what helped my L&D and recovery with DS go so smoothly!

I walked on my treadmill throughout my pregnancy, but around the halfway point I remember dropping the incline and just walking flat. Maybe try it that way?

But I know what you mean. I think all my walking definitely helped with L&D and recovery. Now if I could just find time to walk these days!

I walked at least 20 minutes every day while I was pregnant and started having BH contractions and stuff at about 32 weeks. My doctor just said to back off a little and drink a lot more water.

I was walking to exercise my dogs, so I ended up walking the same route/distance, just much more slowly (really, really slowly at the end!).
