Just got my positive, im around 6 weeks. My saas says rest as much as possible and dont walk much but i feel sitting all day is also not good. Can i still do my normal walks?
I was so scared to even take ten steps in my first trimester, thinking it would cause a miscarriage! But my doctor laughed and said gentle walking is perfectly safe and healthy. Just avoid brisk walking and listen to your body.
Walking really helped me stay active and prepare my body for a normal delivery later. I used to do a gentle 20-minute walk every evening. It keeps your mood fresh too, just don't overdo it.
I felt so peaceful during my morning walks in the first trimester. It really helped with my early morning nausea and made me feel connected to my baby. Just make sure you wear comfortable shoes and take breaks if you feel tired.
Please check with your gynac first. I had light bleeding and a hematoma in my 8th week, so my doctor put me on strict bedrest and banned all walking. If your pregnancy is smooth, it's fine, but do ask your doc.
I am currently planning a pregnancy and always wondered if we need to stop exercising completely in the beginning. It's so good to know that gentle walking is allowed and actually recommended!
Having suffered a loss earlier, I was terrified of doing any physical activity. I stayed on the bed mostly and only walked slowly inside the house after my doctor assured me it was safe. Please be very cautious and stop immediately if you feel any cramps or discomfort.
Yes, you can absolutely walk, it's actually very good for you. Just don't overexert yourself or walk in the hot sun. Keep a normal, comfortable pace and stay hydrated.
Walking in early pregnancy is great, but wait till you reach the 3rd trimester where you waddle like a penguin after just 5 steps lol! Enjoy the easy walks now while you still have your feet visible!
