And is climbing safe during pregnancy? Read the advice on pregnant climbing in the climbing forest here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pregnant climbing: technically possible, not recommended<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you climb if you are pregnant? The short answer: it is technically possible, but it is not recommended. Climbing while pregnant is done at your own risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why climbing during pregnancy is not recommended<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons why climbing during pregnancy is not recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Climbing harness and pressure on body<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Climbing belt sits around waist and legs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Normal load is already felt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extra pressure on your belly during movement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pelvis and abdomen are especially vulnerable during pregnancy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. What happens in case of a slip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Climbing Belt catches you off guard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You get a shock to your body, especially around the waist and pelvis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extra power comes to your body<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Impact on pregnancy is uncertain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Physical strain in general<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Climbing asks of your body:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Strength and effort<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balance sheet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Endurance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stress hormones may increase during anxiety or exertion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Medical perspective<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>What do doctors say about climbing during pregnancy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>General guidelines during pregnancy regarding sports<br><\/strong>\u2713 <strong>Moderate movement<\/strong> is healthy during pregnancy<br>\u2713 <strong>Hiking, swimming, yoga<\/strong> are safe sports<br>\u2713 <strong>Avoid contact sports<\/strong><br>\u2713 <strong>Avoid altitude activities<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rebooking during pregnancy<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Already booked but find out about your pregnancy later? Then there are a number of options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2713 Move free of charge up to 24 hours before visit<br>\u2713 Move your booking to a fictitious date, with this you can still come climbing at a later date<br>\u2713 Transferring your booking to someone else<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all these options, you need to contact the Klimbos customer service team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion: safety before pleasure<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you climb if you are pregnant? Technically it is possible, but it is strongly advised against from hot safety point of view. The climbing harness, shock when catching and physical strain can pose risks to mother and baby. Although there is no official ban, climbing during pregnancy is done at your own risk and is not medically recommended. The advice: postpone climbing until after pregnancy and your recovery period. You can rebook your booking to a later time up to 24 hours in advance free of charge. Safety comes first and climbing is so much more fun when you can enjoy it carefree!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An important question for expectant mothers: can you climb when pregnant?
