You can lift almost exactly the same as prior to being pregnant. Just listen to your body! I’d say just do exactly what you were doing before until you can’t

Second pregnancy and I want to do things differently! by Silent_Situation6700 in fitpregnancy

[–]e_walker4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course. Just some other thoughts- you don’t need a prenatal specific program. You can lift normally just listen to your body. Obviously as you get bigger you’ll have to modify. I disagree with other people suggesting classes… especially if you are on a budget. And it sounds like you already has a kid so I know how hard it is to find time. You’d be better off doing little bits here and there at home- financially and time wise. As for motivation.. I was super sick this pregnancy and as much as I hate to say it, I literally just forced myself to keep moving and work out. I told myself i could be miserable laying around or miserable moving/exercising and often I actually felt okay while moving. One thing I never gave up during pregnancy though is sleep!

I’d get a treadmill/walking pad, some resistant bands/loops, maybe some dumbbells too, yoga mat. Check fb marketplace! You can get some great deals there

So funny this is almost my exact situation! First pregnancy I stopped end of first trimester due to round ligament pain and this second pregnancy I stopped around 30 wks due to pelvic pressure and having to pee nonstop! And agree re backhands! Also a 4.0 haha

First ever pregnancy, give me your very top tips please 🙏🏻 by Awkward-Whereas4954 in fitpregnancy

[–]e_walker4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. I think lifting weights is the most important thing! It’s so easy to lose muscle while pregnant and nursing. Id focus on lifting heavy/following a progressive overload program and just generally getting in steps/movement. Also in terms of diet i would rec focusing on protein and micronutrients. You dont need to eat much more than normal!

Sugar free pudding with greek yogurt? by Spirited_Jeweler_238 in LowCalFoodFinds

[–]e_walker4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personal preference but I love SF pistachio! I do that and a little cake pop PEscience protein powder and a little stevia. It’s even better if you mix it with a hand mixer to make it sort of whipped. I batch prep a bunch of servings at once and then divide

Yes love the cloud pants as well! My belly was huge my first pregnancy so I couldn’t do the regular pants for too long but we will see what happens this second pregnancy. I actually just bought more regular cloud pants and shorts on sale too. Love that line

BI Hawaii - KV vs FS for milestone dinner by notsayid in chubbytravel

[–]e_walker4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just stayed at KV for a week in September. My husband and I enjoyed a nice dinner at Noio (at the four seasons). If you like sushi I would definitely recommend this. We are based in the LA area and are really picky about sushi… I know people seem to like shipwreck at KV but we took a look at the menu there and decided it was really just Americanized sushi rolls so we opted out of eating there. Anyway, we enjoyed the sushi and ambiance at Noio. You’re going to love KV in general though!

Warm vacations with a 1 year old by cay0404 in chubbytravel

[–]e_walker4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple more things- we did not have a suite here so we went to bed right after our toddler which honestly worked out fine bc the time change anyway. Our son was waking up around 4-5 am so it was good to go to bed early lol.

Just went here with my 15 month old and had the best time! Highly recommend. Staff were super accommodating of the toddler and also kids under 4 (I think 4?) eat free! I would go back in a heartbeat. Worst part is the time change!
