I got sick after I got pregnant this second time around with Hyperemesis, it was brutal and I couldn’t move with out vomiting. I had such bad pelvic pain from this. Now that I am better at 6 months pregnant working out has stopped my pelvic pain, so interesting how that works and everyone is different!
This guy was great! No awkwardness at all talking about growing breasts and pelvic floor strength.
When I was pregnant with my second, a coworker told me she had run throughout her pregnancy. I was not a runner at that point, and I thought she was nuts and had been putting her baby at risk and being selfish. It blew my mind. Here I am with pregnancy three running a couple of times a week comfortably.
im currently 35w pregnant and still run on most days! (with an OK from my doctor ofcourse) on weekend i do cross training to rest my legs. i think that running (and exercising in general) really helps me going through this pregnancy.but the stares people give you omg! people keep judging me for running. that’s the hardest part, not the actual running itself.
Considering I’m of child bearing age and I’m hoping to settle down and start a family within the next 3-5 years this is nice to know.
I’m 5mos and I have recent pain when walking (left upper inner thigh) specifically where the inner thigh meets the pelvic area. Currently, I am running an average of 2.5 miles 6 days/week with lunges and squats. I was told that the ligaments stretch and grow has anyone experienced this pain? I assume I need a day or two off and skip the squats, but I just love running… I can say, I haven’t had anyone say anything to me about running in public… then again, most folks are asleep or busy on their way to work. Every now and then I can hit 4-5 miles, but that’s been few and far between lately.
Post partum-What about not being able to run before the baby has nursed? emptying both breasts may still not keep you from leaking while running. Great bra and pads are necessary plus having any opportunity to either leave the house or own a treadmill.
I could barely walk-hormones caused tachycardia even when sitting still.
Congratulations to you two. I’m hoping you can keep running. Good exercise matters always. Healthy mom & dad; opportunities for healthy kids.
I feel like they should touch on diastasis recti when talking about core strength when pregnant. While pregnant, there is nothing you can do to stop/fix it other than supporting the abdomen. “Focusing on core strength” might encourage someone to do core activities which can definitely worsen the separation.
Im a runner and pregnant, running for 11 years before I was pregnant. I think your body will tell you what feels right slower pace and lower intensity will naturally happen. I also use FitSplint belly support belt, which I think just makes it feel better to run while pregnant!
I love to run and at 22weeks preggy I’m still out there jogging after watching this I’ll add more core exercises. ☺️
Somebody from my ParkRun ran a sub 30min 5k and gave birth just 5 days later.
Congratulations Rick & Chantel on your pregnancy and all the best for the future.
I know you’re a bit occupied what with having a baby and all but I hope to see you on the channel more love the beginning chat (and the end):-)
If you ask a lot of guys, they started running when their partners told them they were pregnant
Congrats Rick and Chantel on the little one. Rick time to ditch those “short shorts” now
This is absolutely inspiring. I’m in the same boat!!!! Just found out I’m pregnant while I was training for a half marathon. Thank you for sharing. It gives me hope!
I think that this is STUPID.
YOU ARE STRESSING OUT THE BABY.
I THINK YOU ARE ENDANGERING YOUR CHILD.
I need some new shoes lol:D and a new playlist:) can’t wait to start walking and running after the 6 week mark
Call me old fashioned, or an a….hole (you won’t be the first ), but I hope this child yet to be born never sees when Mom was interviewed on national TV, and being referred to as a “bump or hiccup” in this woman’s obvious obsession with running.
