Pregnancy comes with important decisions, and sometimes there isn’t enough opportunity for in-depth conversations with your doctor.

So here’s a strategy:
➡ Don’t ask, “Can I run a 10k while pregnant?”
➡ Ask, “Based on my health and pregnancy, what risks or benefits should I consider if I want to run a 10k?”

This shift turns the conversation away from permission seeking into shared decision-making.
