Exercise while TTC?
| Fri, 09-05-2003 - 3:04pm |
Should you do rigorous exercise when you're TTC? I've read differing opoinions on it. I've kept my exercise to just walking for now, but I'd prefer to keep up with my regular aerobics.

Good luck!

As far as TTC and exercising, as long as your periods have stayed normal, you shouldn't have a problem conceiving. Some women (myself included) however, may find that they get a condition called athletic amenorrhoea where they're periods stop all together due to too much vigorous exercise. In most cases, simply taking it down a notch or two should help your period resume.
A good book to look into is called "Exercising Through Your Pregnancy" by Dr. Clapp. I highly recommend checking it out.
