PSA for working out... with 8 days until my due date...

.. I feel incredible. Not one ache or pain. I can tie my shoes, shave my legs, paint my toes. I can sit on the floor (and get up easily from it), don't get winded, sleep really well, and just feel excellent.

I attribute it all to working out because I just don't have the kind of luck to have a perfect pregnancy Chat Icon

Since Day 1 I've done at least a half hour of cardio a day (which is now reduced to walking), stretching exercises and back strengthening exercises.

Of course this is easier for me since this is #1, I assume I won't have the time or energy to keep this up when #2 arrives.

so good to hear!!!! I wish I could work out but everyday leaving my house at 6am and not coming home till 7pm just leaves no time during the week. I am very actiive and am 31 weeks and feel great so hopefully it will continue. Thanks for sharing!

Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Great job. I hope to even feel half as good as you by then. I have been working out a 3-5 times a week since January. And even though I am only 5 weeks I feel like I can keep this routine up.

So far I'm on the same path... 32 days to go and I've worked out at least 30minutes a day 5-6 days a week since day 1 and haven't had any of the aches and pains I've heard about and I'm still able to do all the things you listed as well. I'm hoping when I've got 8 days to go its the same as you too. Thanks for the info!!

ITA! I am 38 weeks and work out about 4-5 days a week.

I have not been able to go to the gym this whole week because we are having painting done and I am aching and tired!

good for you!!! I was really good with walking until it started to get really hot this summer. I still try and do something "active" everyday!

Awesome!

I walk 5 days a week 2-3 miles a day and do some free hand weights as well. I still get aches and pains though Chat Icon

But without working out, I seriously would have gained a ton of weight with the way I have been eating. My weight is right in check and I credit it to working out- not eating like a piggy Chat Icon

What kind of cardio were you doing in the beginning? Elliptical? treadmill?
