Sex + Exercise

Have y'all been told by your doctors that sex & exercise are out if you have had multiple miscarriages? I haven't talked to my Dr about it yet, but my cousin is an OB & she said she tells her recurring miscarriage patients that sex & exercise in the first tri are a no no.

Re: Sex + Exercise

  • I've heard of some people saying their docs told them that but mine didn't and I had recurrent m/c prior to having DD. Of course I didn't feel like doing either in 1st tri so it didn't really matter!!

  • I've never miscarried but, I wouldn't do either regardless if my doc said so or not. I just think that back in the old days they called pregnancy a "delicate condition" for a reason.

    I'm sure you have nothing to worry about :) I would just do light walking and leave it at that for now. Just my personal opinion though.

    Best of luck to you and congrats!

  • I was told not to have sex or exercise on my BFP#3 (which resulted in my beautiful DD) b/c I had two prior losses.  This was from a different OB than I currently have. My current OB told me to go ahead and have sex and exercise as usual with BFP#4, which I miscarried.  Not sure what the advice on the next BFP will be...


    BFP #1 ended in MMC. Discovered Oct 2005 @10w5d, baby stopped growing around 6w. D&C.
