eliptical and pregnancy....
Just a quick question, i am 17 weeks, going back to the gym tomorrow more consistently.. is the eliptical safe? or should I stick to the treadmill? I have to keep this weight gain in check!
thanks!

Re: eliptical and pregnancy....
Yes, it's fine but you have to be careful with cardio. You cannot overheat yourself. So your heartrate needs to stay lower.
I would ask your OB about what he/she think is safe for you and what level of activity/cardio he/she wants you to do.

Always ask your OBGYN. If you haven't been doing it consistantly under their care, you must ask!

I think the elliptical would be safe as it usually has a heart monitor on it and it is low impact. Remember to keep heart rate below 140.
Have fun!

My doctor gave me a formula for the heart rate to stay under. I am doing the elliptical, but much more slowly than before. I don't want my heart rate to get too crazy.
