I managed to get off the sofa just enough to do my shoulder rehab. At three months I started feeling a bit better and more energetic and I was able to go back to Lilleshall for gym and rehab and to start shooting again.
I continued my gym work as for a while until October, about five months in. After that, I adapted exercises in the gym to make it safer. You can do side planks, but not front planks. My hips and pelvic area was obviously becoming lax, but I found that doing dead lifts, Romanian dead lifts and Bulgarian split squats really helped to engage the muscles to support the joint and give me more stability and less of that pinching pain.
I also had to be careful to keep my heart rate below bpm and ensure I had plenty of rest between every set. Shooting wise I shot right up to the day my waters broke, which was a few days past my due date. It did compromise my shot a little. My archery physio was really great. She did a lot of research.
Finding research for specifically pregnant women is really limited. We ended up doing loads of pregnancy-specific yoga to help my pelvic floor and to prepare me for the birth. My main goal was to make the birth as easy as possible, because the time between my due date and Tokyo was five and a half months. So my focus was making sure I was in the best possible condition to give birth, without any interventions. The time between my waters breaking and actually giving birth was 54 hours.
