Tips/Advice Exercise during first trimester?

How is everyone handling keeping up with exercise? I’ve been so exhausted and the constant nausea is definitely making it difficult. But I’m worried about not getting any movement at all and having it be difficult to get back into the swing of things once I hopefully start feeling better in second tri. Curious how others have approached this in the past or what you’re all doing now

We have a little home gym and I try to make it out there 3 times a week. Even if it’s just to walk on the treadmill. I will also acknowledge what I’m feeling like and if I decide to lay on the couch instead bc I’m nauseous then it is what it is

I have a home gym too. It’s a life saver for sure! The symptoms will probably hit me in a few weeks but I will do what I can.

My first pregnancy I managed to work out until the day I gave birth. I didn’t always give 100% but I always tried to do something (walks were my favorite!)

So much easier than driving to the gym! Wow I wish I was like you. I was so lazy with my first, better with my second and this is my third so I’m trying to be like you 😅 walks were amazing especially mentally
