difficult pregnancy and fitness?

Question

I'm going to be housebound and fairly inactive for 6 months. I'm a very fit person and in my last pregnancy did nothing and suffered from muscle crampand weakness. I need non strenuous exercise that if needs be can be done lying down. thanks

Answer 1

I agree that the best thing you can do is to go walking. Regarding your cramps be sure you get adequate calcium (I recommend natural resources like milk or cheese) and to combat with the weakness,have a good diet and adequate rest and sleep. Goodluck!

Answer 2

good old fashioned sex is the best exercise, pity you didn't have an indoor pool that would make you feel lighter and more relaxed. I sympathise with you this weather is not nice to be housebound and pregnant.

Answer 3

The only exercise I will "prescibe" you is the walking!
Thanx to that I gave birth for 20 minutes.
Do not try anything else

Answer 4

You can get little cycle machines that you can use while sitting down or lying on the bed, think you get them from argos.
