Im in my early weeks and used to walk daily before, now im a little scared to continue thinking it might strain something. My family also keeps telling me to rest more. Is walking ok in the beginning?
Walking was the one thing my doctor encouraged from early on, I do a relaxed 20-30 min daily. It really helped my energy and sleep. Just confirm with your own gynac, especially if you have any complications.
Yes, gentle walking is usually one of the safest things in early pregnancy and good for digestion and mood. Keep the pace easy, dont push yourself out of breath. If you have any spotting, pain or a high risk pregnancy, check with your gynac first.
I was nervous to even walk much in early weeks, scared something would happen. My doctor reassured me that gentle walking is good and safe. Did anyone else feel anxious about moving around early on?
