We are trying for a baby and I usually go for my evening jog daily. Now im wondering if jogging right after will affect the chances. Maybe a silly doubt but had to ask, anyone?
Jogging? Right after sex? Sis, I can barely roll over to get my water bottle in this 3rd trimester! Honestly, sperm swims so fast that jogging won't stop them, but please just lie down and relax for 10 minutes instead of running off to the treadmill. Give yourself a break!
Moderate exercise is great, but don't overexert yourself right after intercourse. When I was trying to conceive with my thyroid issues, my doctor suggested staying calm and resting for a bit after sex, and keeping my workouts moderate and at a scheduled time. Just focus on regular, light exercises and keep your doctor updated.
There's no medical proof that light exercise like jogging after sex affects your chances of conception, as sperm moves extremely quickly into the cervix. However, a lot of experts suggest lying flat for 10-15 minutes just to keep things comfortable. If you love jogging, it's totally safe to do it, but maybe wait a little bit rather than rushing out immediately.
You don't need to do anything extreme or rush into intense routines when trying to conceive. Save that energy and those treadmill shoes! Just rest for 15 minutes after sex, it’s completely free and comfortable. Plus, keeping your workouts moderate now will save you from unnecessary doctor visits and expensive fertility checks later.
Omg, why would you want to jog right after sex? I am still pregnant and I remember when we were trying, I would just put a pillow under my hips and lie down for 20 minutes. Did your doctor recommend this or is it just something you enjoy?
