I am 28 weeks pregnant with twins. Second pregnancy. I'm very active and fit generally although I stopped running fairly early on because it was so uncomfortable but I have continued CrossFit and all the weightlifting (scaled down as the pregnancy has progressed).
Pregnancy has been fine, no issues with the babies or anything. However the last week or so I've noticed a huge change in energy levels and just generally get tired out by things much easier. I go to CrossFit in the mornings and when I'm there I feel fine - it's later in the day I feel it!
With my first pregnancy I continued gym etc until about 37 weeks but I'm seriously considering stopping now even though I am still 9 weeks from my due date!! I can't help thinking that I'm giving up on it too early!
I don't finish work for another 4 weeks and I'm finding full time work tiring enough without adding exercise into the equation!
How are other people dealing with exercise later on in pregnancy (especially twin mummies) ?
