I used to do yoga and walking before but now im 14 weeks and a bit scared to continue. MIL says rest karo, but i feel restless sitting whole day. Is it safe to keep going?
Because of my past loss, I strictly avoided any exercise other than very slow walking in my home. Please get your gynac's written permission before you start anything, even yoga.
You can definitely do mild exercises like walking, but please make sure your doctor has confirmed your pregnancy is stable first. No strenuous workouts, okay?
Instead of joining expensive prenatal gyms, simple free walking in a park is best. It saves money for upcoming scanning costs and hospital charges while keeping you perfectly active.
Regular exercise is great for normal delivery prep, but only if you have no complications like low-lying placenta. Stick to safe activities like brisk walking or prenatal yoga.
In my 8th month, just getting up from the bed feels like a heavy weightlifting workout! But yes, mild walking is good, just don't push yourself if you are feeling exhausted.
I only walk so I can justify eating extra parathas and sweets later! But jokes aside, light stretching and walking are totally fine as long as you don't overexert.
My grandmother advised complete rest, but my doctor encouraged me to walk for 30 minutes daily. I trusted my doctor's advice and it kept my blood pressure and sugar perfectly normal.
