I tried to walk on my treadmill today - not quickly at all - and within 9 minutes, I started cramping. So I stopped. I'm not exactly thrilled about it. Any one else experiencing this? I'd really like to be able to walk!
RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me. You made my wedding day complete.
I'm a walker and had some cramping early on (4/5 weeks). I listened to my body and slowed down. I've been able to pick up the pace lately. I'm not quite to my pre-PG pace, but I'm pretty close and enjoying my walks again.
I did some reading on RLP & they said that exercise can bring it on. I've found that I usually cramp a little bit, take a break from exercising. It usually goes away pretty quickly & I can go back to what I was doing.
I had some cramping when I did a TON of walking at Sea World. I think its probably just stuff growing and getting "loose" and will go away. I read that you should start with 20 minutes of light walking (which seems like nothing) and then increase as your body allows. (If you didn't run/work out prior to getting pregnant) In the end: ALWAYS listen to your body.
