Anyone else lead a super busy lifestyle?
I am none stop between housework, dog walks, shopping, decorating, my toddler, nursery runs, work etc.
Sometimes I feel a kick and I’m like “oh yeah” because I barely sit down or rest.
Will this lead to any complications it’s generally has my anxiety higher as people keep telling me to rest but it’s not an option, not unless people helped me out 🙈

I can’t imagine it will cause any complications if this is a normal level of activity for you, though you may be more exhausted doing it all while carrying a baby!!
How does your toddler sleep? We’re quite lucky my little one sleeps well, so from once shes in bed and I’ve done dinner that’s me signed off for the night, sitting on the sofa for a couple of hours before bed.
This is also the time I make sure I really concentrate on movements etc xxx

I’m the same as you and I can only hope it’ll help because we will be fit and strong , I’m rubbish at resting but I do find I give myself a quiet evening once my other two are in bed xx

Same here. I’m always on the run, walking my dog, work, toddler duty, cooking, cleaning and so on. I’ve also got an anterior placenta and I rarely feel any kicks, unless I sit down.
I’ve started to tag team with my husband, so as soon as he’s home from work, I’m off duty.
With my first I just rested, but not an option this time. I’m at my usual level of exercise, though much heavier and carrying a baby, so definitely much much harder. I think it will be beneficial if anything since we’re active, we keep moving, we keep strong.

I am exactly the same, this is my 3rd pregnancy and feeling the exhaustion a bit more than before due to age but other than that I wouldn’t worry. It’s good to be active, stops baby from getting comfy and makes labour quicker!
