When did you stop running?

Hi all, I am 33 weeks pregnant and can’t tell whether I should keep running or not as I tend to feel a lot of pressure down there for a while after I’ve ran. It makes me feel good and I know I exercise is good for the baby. Will it also help with labour if I keep going? I was a runner before I was pregnant and have already reduced to 25 mins of walk:jog from about 28 weeks until now. When did you feel was the right time to slow down?

I’m exactly the same! I’m 32 years weeks and a 5k is now a 3k but with slow running and then incline walks x 3

Did you stop yet or still going ? 🙂 I'm 20 weeks and already feeling the pressure down there! Did you wear a support belt?

I think ok to keep going until it feels uncomfortable. I kept going until about 36 weeks with my first.

Update on 17 days ago. Been told best to stop as I had some bleeding last week. All good. But that's me out now till end of August earliest!

I’ve just stopped running at 33wks, too much like a washing mashine and a bouncing weight on my bladder. Still doing bootcamp tho, mainly strength and resistance x
