Exercise
I'm sorry for all the questions all at once, I'm new here! Does anyone still exercise, or do you avoid exercise totally. I have a gym membership, and I was going on a steady baisis. I'm not sure if I should stop or not.

Re: Exercise
I still excercise, but it's nothing like the workouts I used to do before.
I have the lowered the amount of weights I use and I stick to the elliptical trainer for cardio. I also keep my heart rate under 140.

Re: Exercise
You can do the same amount of exercise you did pre-pregnancy. I was going to continue but had to stop due to hyperemesis - I couldn't even keep down water or any food, exercise was pointless...

Re: Exercise
I went until the third trimester. I stopped lifting and only did cardio. I got a heartrate monitor to make sure I stayed under 140.

Re: Exercise
My doctor told me not to change my activity levels. I have only been walking for the last year anyway, so I am continuing that.
My friend took aerobics classes up until her eighth month. Shejust modified as she went along to what was comfortable.

Re: Exercise
I went up until my 6th month. Then I started to get cramping afterward and the Dr. told me to take it easy.

Re: Exercise
I did just about nothing during the first tri once the exhaustion hit me.
Towards the end of the 1st tri I started walking a few days a weeks and doing prenatal yoga once a week. 2 weeks ago I was having contractions (18 weeks) so my dr. said no more treadmill. Niw I am just doing my prenatal yoga class once a week and I bought a dvd so I can do it more often at home in addition to my class.
