I used to do a small workout routine before and pushups were part of it. Now im 10 weeks and not sure if I should continue. Dont wanna put pressure on the pet wrongly, anyone still doing them?
When you have hormonal issues like thyroid, keeping fit is good but safety comes first. Do not do heavy floor pushups as they strain the abdomen. Talk to your doctor in your regular checkup about safe prenatal exercises.
Oh my, standard pushups sound very scary during pregnancy! I would be so worried about putting too much pressure on the belly. Please ask your gynac first, or maybe switch to wall pushups which are much gentler.
Honestly, instead of doing risky pushups and ending up with muscle strain and extra doctor visits, stick to simple free walking. It's safe, free, and keeps you fit without any unnecessary medical expenses.
I was also wondering about this! My trainer told me to avoid floor pushups and do wall pushups instead to avoid pressure on the core. What trimester are you in? Definitely check with your gynac once.
Pushups? I could barely roll out of bed with my twin belly! Floor pushups are a bad idea because of the strain on your tummy. Just stick to light stretching and save your energy for the babies.
My pregnancy was very precious due to my PCOS history, so I avoided any heavy core exercises. If you want to stay active, modified wall pushups are safer, but definitely get your doctor's approval first.
My doctor explained that standard floor pushups can strain your core and cause diastasis recti during pregnancy. She advised me to do modified incline pushups against a wall or kitchen counter, but only if cleared by her.
Beta, ye pushups vagerah abhi mat karo, pet par bojh padta hai. Rather than hard exercises, just do light morning walks in the fresh air. Take proper rest and don't exert your body too much right now.
