Working out with baby?

I go twice a week to the gym. A Monday night once OH gets home from work at 5 and then a Saturday morning at 7.30am. He also has 2 set evenings in the week to do his exercise. Every night we still eat dinner together.

I go 4 times a week, twice before everyone wakes and twice at the weekend when my partner is home with us

I am with my baby 24/7. He's EBF and feeds every 1.5h and I really don't know how I'd find the time to exercise! I know you can prioritise but at the moment I try to do housework instead x

So it's tricky but you have to be intentional. I have started doing 10ksteps daily and exercising at least 2-3 times weekly. These include a 30 mins run or gym before hubby goes to work. I have also now started working out with my baby at home using him as my weights.

I exercise during baby's first nap. I prioritise exercise over the housework 😆 My husband helps with that when he's not at work. And I do some housework while baby's awake if she's content.

same with me during the week and honestly I feel like I can’t fully settle until at least most of the mess is gone so I usually pick that over everything else!

yeah I think that’s key, I find if I decide in advance to go a walk then I’m more inclined to do it. He naps 2 hours at a time so can definitely fit a decent walk in for one of them! Ohh I like including him in a work out, he’d probably love it 😂

Have you looked into whether your local gym does parent and baby classes? My gym does 3 a week so I go to them and then try and go once on my own at the weekend too and get out for walks when I can.
Like you I can't focus on anything else if my house is untidy so I always end up prioritising that over a home work out which is why my gym classes are so good!

I have just started this week doing home workouts as my LG has finally started taking a 1 long nap in the morning. So I do a workout straight after she is down. Then I'll do whatever housework needs doing

I know how you feel. My son contact naps during the day and when he’s awake he is very clingy. During the night he wakes often. So I feel like I don’t have no time to exercise.
For me first step is to start having dinner and evenings back with my husband. Then consider fitting in exercise.

I do home work outs. Right next to baby whilst she’s on her play mat. She seems content that way because I’m right there and I’m still able to engage with her and she can even join in. When I finish with a bit of Pilates she will smack me and grab my hair though 😂😂

My baby feeds every hour and their dad works 10am-10pm 5 days a week so no time! With all wake ups of my 2 year old plus baby at night it's a miracle I leave the house 😂
I babywear them out and about and tend to speedwalk. They only nap on me 😅
