Haha, climbing stairs? That just makes me hungry for something yummy afterwards! 😉 But seriously, if your doc says it's cool, then it's a good way to stay active. Just don't push yourself too much, save energy for those snack runs!
My doctor actually said climbing stairs is a good form of light exercise, especially in the early months. It helps keep you active and strengthens your leg muscles. Just make sure you're not out of breath or feeling any strain. Always hold the railing for safety, that's what my doc advised.
Being extra careful in early pregnancy is always good, especially if you have a history like PCOS. My doctor advised me to avoid any strenuous activity that felt like a strain. So, if climbing stairs makes you tired or stressed, it's probably better to limit it or ask your gynac first. Don't take any chances, just be mindful.
Honestly, I used to climb stairs daily till my 8th month because my house has two floors. My gynac said it's totally fine as long as you feel comfortable and don't overexert yourself. Just go slow and steady, na.
I'm in my second trimester and also sometimes wonder about this! In my first tri, I was so paranoid. My mom keeps saying to avoid stairs but my gynac said light activity is fine. Did anyone else feel this anxious about such basic things?
Totally fine, don't worry. Unless your doctor has specifically told you not to because of a medical reason, continue with your normal activities. Just listen to your body, if you feel tired, take a break.
