I was wondering if any of you have been to any pregnancy yoga or exercise classes… I can feel myself just getting unfitter by the day and I need to motivation to do something, and I’d rather start now at 18 weeks then later on!! Any suggestions??x

Yes, you can continue anything you did before, with modifications. So if you have been running for years for example, you can continue to run. If you are starting something new, stay away from anything high impact like weights or body pump. Yoga, pilaties and swimming are really good during pregnancy and you can continue to do them right up to and post birth.
Going for a gentle walk is also really good. Just keep walking at a pace that you can maintain a conversation at.
As crazy as it sounds, when you feel like 💩, doing some exercise will make you feel better, even if it is a 5 min walk around the block. Xx

I have kept walking about 3 miles a day throughout pregnancy (currently 33 weeks). I'm going to start a yoga class when I finish work too.
This is my second pregnancy and I have kept more active this time and definitely feel better, and stronger. I'm hoping it will make labour a bit easier too 🤞 xx

There's a pregnancy yoga in neath x
