Exercise in Late Pregnancy

Is anyone still working out? If so, what kinds of workouts? I'm 38 weeks and 5 days. Trying to stay fit but it is such a struggle.

  • Iv'e just been walking at least an hour a day, some of it up the hill.

    I just walk as well..my dog is really enjoying it! I go on a morning, afternoon, and night walk. Plus when I have time I go to the mall and make rounds using the stairs as much as possible
  • Walking and doing squats for me

    I try to walk 2 miles a day. Or until my feet feel like they are going to fall off my legs (which is normally around 2 miles)
  • Normal workouts (legs, back, chest arms... Etc) for me still. I have just reduced the weight but have increased the reps.
    For cardio, I sometimes run (slowly) but mostly just get on the stair master or walk on the treadmill and increase the incline to 10.
  • Walking, trying to get to the gym still twice a week (10 minutes eliptical, 1/2 hour weights and squats and abs), and once a week swimming for 45 minutes.  My sleep is shit the last month, so I don't always make the gym twice, but I try to walk more to make up for it - there's no way I can go to the gym after a day of teaching, way too tired for that nonsense.
  • walking and swimming...and running after a 20 month old all day
  • Walking lots and I do prenatal yoga once a week. The yoga poses are getting harder to do and hold.
  • I'm still walking, elliptical, some trx and kettlebells.  I'm 37wks + 3 days.  I'm a scheduled csection on the 27th and want to keep going with everything until then.  I just try to listen to my body and if I'm feeling sore or just not into it that day I give myself a break.  At my last appt my doctor told me it was ok to get lazy now and just take it easy! ha
  • Was still doing modified CrossFit workouts up to 36 weeks. Now I haven't been doing much of anything (just trying to make sure this baby doesn't come as early as the last one!) but will definitely start working out again if I make it to 39 weeks to try and get this baby out!
