Gym time.

I've noticed my body getting less and less attractive in my eyes. Everyone says I'm small, and I know it's mostly just baby but my arms are getting flabby along with my legs in comparison to the active body I had before. I use to work out before getting pregnant then stopped because first trimester was exhausting. Now I'm getting back into it (first day back at the gym!). For anyone that use to work out before pregnant, 6+ months ago, what's a good rule of thumb for lifting? Could I start working my way back up to my previous weights, or my body is so out of touch that it's best to just keep it low weights high reps until baby comes?

Just listen to your body. I'm able to do basically everything I did before I was pregnant. Still lifting the same amount in weight training. I just get tired a lot faster.

I don't think being put for the first trimester set you back too much but I would start light, and work up to a percentage of what you used to do. I'm around 75% or so

I strongly suggest checking out mom's gone strong. I was prepping for my kettlebell certificate before getting pregnant, I've managed to keep at it, but I've scaled back a lot. Pay attention to your body, pain isn't good, leave your ego at the door, remember to brace your abs when doing any lifts.

Forgot to mention: I have my next appointment on Tuesday where I plan to speak to my doctor for recommendations. Just wanted to see if anyone could speak from experience. Thank you!

I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...
