The same thing happened to me when I went back to Crossfit after my first trimester hibernation. I felt fine during the very scaled workout. However the next morning I was really dizzy and ended up going home sick from work.

I chalked it up to overdoing it my first time back and not having the blood volume that I needed at that point. I was about 15 weeks. My doctor was not concerned. It never happened again and I worked out every other day until my due date.

I hope you feel better!

Before pregnancy I kickboxed or walked 3.5-5 miles per day. I had to give up kickboxing before pregnancy as per my RE's request. During my first trimester I was so sick that I gave up walking as well. I started feeling better around week 15 so I've been walking two miles a day since around Christmas. Good luck

I'm 9 weeks too, and I've definitely had to cut back on my workouts. I used to work out 5 days a week with both cardio and strength training, but I was finding that I was just even more exhausted after doing that once I got pregnant. So, I cut out most of the strength training and have been sticking to just the elliptical. It's made a difference - I'm not nearly as tired afterwards, and I've been able to keep up with it!

Hopefully the exhaustion goes away soon for both of us - I definitely know how awful it can be!

I had to stop working out til I think 13 weeks because of some bleeding, but once I started back up I felt great and was still in the gym 2 days before I went in to the hospital. Most people's energy picks back up in the second tri so if you feel like you need to take the time off, don't think you'll never get back to the gym.

I didn't bother during my first trimester. I was tired and nauseous. Now I'm in my 2nd trimester and I go to water zumba, it's easier on the body when you're in the water. But I'm still crazy tired at 14 weeks

The first few weeks of pregnancy I was too tired to even think about exercise. I'm in my tenth week now and have started to feel a little more energy and so have started to do some videos at home and go to the gym. I do feel way more tired after a workout. Yesterday I attempted a Zumba class and when I came home took a 3 hour nap afterward.
