[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just posted (mom of two above this post) and just read through a lot of the other replies - lots of good advice here. I just wanted to add that something that was super helpful for me in my second pregnancy was going for daily walks. I had gestational diabetes and HAD to go for walks after meals to keep my blood sugar under control, but I also think it was amazing for both my physical and mental health. I had far less swelling/edema that is very normal in your 3rd trimester with my second pregnancy, plus spending 30-45 min walking solo with an audiobook or music was very therapeutic. Exercise helps a lot with anxiety and depression as well. Keeping up your walking habit once the baby is here (honestly, it took about 3-4 weeks before I could manage this regularly) is a habit that can help your state of mind post partum as well.[/quote]

Hey I just started doing this. Especially with so many limited activities/social interaction during covid. This is so helpful- I need to add on audiobook on these walks.[/quote]
