Hi all!
So I am 9 weeks pregnant and have been told to do light exercises. Am happy to buy just wondering if anyone is pregnant and running? I would run at the gym , 5K three times a week. And stopped in Novemver (as I went through IVF - and couldn't raise my body temp for the last procedure)
Happily pregnant but really want to start running and training weights again!
Any info or advice would bee so great!!!
Thank you!!

    If your doctors have cleared you, I see no reason why you can't start running. If you haven't exercised since November though, I'd start slow and steady.

    Congrats on your pregnancy, I know how hard IVF can be and how sweet the reward is.

    Congrats! Ditto above poster. If you've been cleared, I would resume. There is a great group (or there was when I was pregnant) on here that will have great advice! http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/1903-fit-fabulous-pregnant

    start with walking. Check with your dr. if running is considered "light exercise". It may not be.
