Working out during Pregnancy

[clueless_bride]

I am not sure if may thread na ganito, I was searching sa mga previous threads but for some reason I can't access or nakalock ata yung thread.

Anyway, just wanna ask if anyone of you tried working out during your prregnancy? and what kind of exercises do you do? and kelan kayo nag start (after ba ng 1st trimester)?

I am very active before i got pregnant, I run, lift weights, strength training, cardio... so basically i workout 5-6 times a week...

I still want to be active kahit preggy na ko... but not sure whether i should start now (7wks preggy) or wait ko matapos 1st trimester?... gusto ko lang malaman mga experiences ng mga fit mommies dito...

Hi mommy!

Me too a bit active before I got pregnant, I do Yoga, Zumba and Running before. Nung nag 1st trimester na ko I stopped everything kasi super hilo mode.

Now Im on my 2nd trimester, walking nalang and stretching sa morning and evening.

[arragalang]

^ basi stretching lang. Meron stretching for preggies eh. You can look sa mga books or youtube. in preparation na rin sa pag laki ng tummy tsaka para makaiwas sa Round Pain Ligament.

Oo pwede daw running kaya lang sakin kasi mababa yung placenta ko so bawal. Hehe lakad lakad lang minsan minsan sa mall.

hi sis clueless_bride, I'm on my 8th month and I still do zumba...basta wag lang un mga exercises that require talon talon and bonggang running is good as per my prev and current OBs...stretching is important...lalo na pag dumating na sa point na talagang masakit ang balakang at mga binti sa laki ng tyan...

walking is encouraged, lalo na for someone like me na may back problem....my ortho would require me to walk at least 30 mins, 3-4 times a week para malessen un pain ng likod ko...true enough....


basta wag super tagtag na exercise sis....

Active din ako bago mabuntis. zumba at workout sa gym. minsan swim, lakad lakad.   ng nabuntis ako sakto natapos membership ko sa gym kaya hindi muna ko nagparenew. Pero nageexercise pa rin ako until now, im on my 34th week. Lakad, lakad, stretching, squatting tska may friend akong zumba instructor maganda daw sa buntis yung figure 8 so ginagawa ko hehe. sa belly dancing yun eh.

[FayeP]

uu sis abbey, originally nga daw un belly dancing was created in the Middle East para sa mga preggy, para mas madali sila manganak...kaya kun mapapansin daw sa Middle East, malalaki un tyan ng mga nagbebelly dancing hehe....


kasi un movement daw nito para mapadali un paglabas ng baby...

[abbey]

^ uyy sis fayep ikaw pala yan . ohh kaya pala speaking of, makapag ganun nga mamaya. Nakakalimutan ko na lately eh hehe.

[FayeP]

sis abbey, alam mo na walang magawa sa office kaya GT GT din pag may time...


sis cluelessbride, di ko pa natry pero un friend ko sa prev company, she joined a pre-natal yoga class malapit sa office namin sa RCBC, kasi sabi daw ng OB nya, para daw mas mabilis cya manganak tapos di ba may breathing breathing exercises din dun...kaya nagustuhan nya...I remember her telling me na mainit daw un studio nila, di ko alam kun anong klaseng yoga un mainit ang studio so tagaktak pawis talaga...but she swore it helped her giving birth....

[abbey]

Sis fayep - hehe alam na! At rcbc ka rin pala ha.
ah yan yung yoga na sadyang mainit yung room para mega pawis. Nakalimutan ko yung tawag. pero parang alanganin yata yun pag buntis.

[clueless_bride]

oh wow parang ok yang pre-natal yoga... basta anything na mapapadali ang panganganak gagawin ko haha...
baka mag try na lang ako niyan after my 1st trimester... basta ma sure ko lang healthy si baby gogora na ko diyan.... kailangan natin yang breathing exercise at stretching, di pa naman ako marunong umire ata waaahhh

hi sisses,

I'm happy to read na my mga kagaya ko pala. i'M On my 14th week na and i still go to the gym with my trainer. I go there twice a week and attend yoga every saturday. Pero regular yoga siya, i just have some restrictions. Wala kasing pre natal yoga na malapit sa akin. Ang sarap ng feeling na nakakapag work out pa din kasi talagang kapag nasa house lang ako, wala akong magawa kung hindi kumain ng kumain. Pero good thing i subscribed with healthy basket for their preggy menu.. 

[pinkgal]

Hi sis clueless bride! Nasanay na kasi akong mag gym for the last 6 months.. Kaya tuloy tuloy ko na.. Saka hindi naman kasi ako payat in the first place kaya kailangan ko talaga ito.. Hehe.. I hope na sana magka energy kana and have a healthy pregnancy 

[wowry]

I walk everyday for 30 minutes to work kaya yon na pinaka work out ko.

[skela96c]

Been doing a lot of walking lately especially since i'm on my 15w na. My OB encourages me to exercise also to help my GDM. I want to try yoga for preggos. Been practicing a bit of yoga before so might be a good time to practice again now.

Hello mommies!

25 weeks and 3 days pregnant ako. Ive been doing HIIT exercises before I got pregnant. When my pregnancy was confirmed, I stopped for two weeks. Di naman kasi ako nakaranas ng morning sickness and di naman daw ako high risk sabi ni OB, bumalik ako sa page-exercise. Since nung 8 weeks ko hanggang ngayon, ive been doing prenatal barre for one hour, mon to fri. Sat and sun pahinga. 
Sana up to my third trimester makapag barre pa din ako.

Hello,
Exercising during your pregnancy has great benefits – it can help prepare you for labor and childbirth and lift your spirits.
Thanks

[dropdeadgorgeous]

yes it helped me a lot sis. the time I was 7 months pregnant, I started walking every morning within our area. nakatulong ito sa akin sa tingin ko kasi hindi ako matagal nag labor.

i haven't started working out yet but i have a prenatal workout playlist on youtube

[crzysxycl]

Pasali mga sis. Currently in my 1st trimester. Had subchorionic hemorrhage nung 6th week ko so I assumed bawal ako mag exercise plus lagi akong hilo at pagod. Now na nalift na bed rest ko, I do stretching lang. Sana tuloy tuloy na maging ok si baby para makapag workout na talaga.

[coco_cola]

I was doing prenatal yoga and theraband workout until I had spotting. I have placenta previa. So I had to stop. Been on bedrest. Hoping that my placenta corrects itself so I can go back to prenatal yoga.
