Diet and Exercise:Safe Exercises in Gym while Conceiving
2006-04-07
Name: Jaya



Hi,

I am trying to conceive and I am also thinking of joining the Gym.

So I wanted to make sure whether it is safe to exercise in the gym when trying to conceive.....would like to know what type of exercise is safe......like walking on the treadmill, cycling for toning the thigh muscles, some shoulder exercises to tone breast muscles....etc,....is this all safe??

Anyone, kindly suggest.
Thank u in advance.
Rgds,
Jay

Jaya,

I shud think that its perfectly safe joining the gym while you are trying to concieve. Go ahead and get in shape before you get pregnant.

Working out on the cycle and treadmill has nothing whatsoever to do with concieving. Think about it! What's teh connection???

I was working out regularly at the gym for several months, and even withw eights etc and I am pregnant now.

You have to be a little bit more cautious after you concieve, but its totally ok now.

Hi Jaya,

While you are trying, why do you want to exercise on treadmill n all? I dont think it is advisable. You can try all this after having a kid.. This is what I think. Dont mistake me.

Take care and all the best,
Hermy

diet during pregnancy
Maintaining a healthy diet during pregnancy is very important.

During this time, your body needs additional nutrients, vitamins and minerals.

In fact, you may need 350–500 extra calories each day during the second and third trimesters.

A diet lacking in key nutrients may negatively affect the baby’s development.
