Working out while pregnant...

in April 2015 Moms
Okay so I've become a "gym rat" of sorts in the past year or so in an attempt to lose weight and get fit to get pregnant. And it worked! I lost about 25 lbs and went down like 3 sizes! (score!) My plan is to keep going to the gym throughout the pregnancy but I started my run today and omg my boobs hurt SO much! I had to bring it down to a fast walk on an incline... and i had on my tightest sports bra!

Blah! and waking up to go at 530 is going to get old really fast.... sleepy time... at my desk. :)

Any other pregnant work out girls out there feel my pain?

    Yes! I have lost almost 100lbs in the last two years with just eating healthy and exercising here at home. I was working out 6 days a week until the last few days. I've had two miscarriages and don't want to overdo it this time so I think I will talk with my OB today at my appt. And see what they suggest. If anything once I hit the 12 week mark I will get back on it, just not as hardcore as I was.

    I wear two bras when I work out. It's the only way to keep my boobs happy, especially when breastfeeding. Yikes!

    I wear 2 bras when running. The tatas hurt to bad to not give them ALL the support.

    I've been working out like crazy but haven't lost much and I'm still not in great shape. I'm still bf'ing my 9 month old- this one was a bit of a surprise. I decided to stick to low impact- walking, cycling, elliptical... But I can't gain much weight at this point for my health so I'm really going to try to put the time in!

    Thank you @rkelly710‌. :) I was in a bad wreck in 2012 and gained soooo much weight from not being able to work and dang steroid shots. I got up to 315 lbs and felt and looked horrible. I'm down to 220 lbs now which is still not my 180lbs goal but much better than where I was!

    @hdp61813 oh no! steroids are the worse! I have crohns disease and they will put me on them if i got into a flare and I ALWAYS puff up like a balloon! in 2012 I had my worse flare ever and was on them for months! (i was a crazy person on them too!) I just recently had a mini flare in may and since i was doing weight watchers and working out i was able to keep the weight gain down but the urge to eat everything is so hard to over come!!

    rachelsb81 I know they say any type of activity and keeping your body moving is the best, (more so if you were doing it before!) I was taking a yoga class earlier in the year and I loved it! (but my groupon ran out!) so i might have to actually pay more $ for it this time around... but prenatal yoga is supposed to be great!

    Bless your heart! That's tough but at least you found a balance with weight and steroids. It's definitely not easy.
