Just found out im pregnant, around 6 weeks i think. I used to walk every morning and now im scared even to do that, MIL says rest more. Did u continue ur walks in early days or stopped, want to know.
Yes! Walking was the one thing i kept up my whole pregnancy and it felt great. In early days just keep it gentle, no need to push. It helped my digestion and mood a lot.
Walking is one of the safest exercises in pregnancy as long as your doctor hasnt put you on rest. I did slow 20-30 min walks daily. Just listen to your body and stop if you feel any cramping or discomfort.
Generally yes its safe, but i had some early spotting so my doc told me to rest for a few weeks before resuming. So just double check with your gynac about your case, especially if you have any bleeding history.
My mother always said a gentle walk keeps everything moving and i found it true. Nice and slow in early pregnancy, nothing strenuous. But yes my doctor approved it first, so good to confirm with yours too.
