I've been ellipticalling about 5 days/week, but I haven't been posting on here. Tonight I did 22 minutes on the elliptical and 1 mile on the treadmill at 7:30 and 5%. It felt great. I felt happy and healthy and strong. But I worried a little - I'm a few days over 6 weeks pregnant, and in October when I had the miscarriage at 5 weeks I had run hard that morning or the morning before. Someone a few years ago who had had a miscarriage wrote on her blog that logically she knew that the running hadn't caused the miscarriage, but she had run on that day and so she worried about it. That's how I feel - logically, it was just an early miscarriage that was bound to happen regardless of what I did. But I don't want it to happen again, and since I *did* run I'm afraid of running again. But there are so many examples on this blog of people running (and running hard) while pregnant. I tell myself that they're in better shape than I am, and that I was in better shape with my last pregnancy (both of those are true), but still...if exercise/running caused miscarriages, I think we'd all know by now. |
