walking and swimming are great excerises to do while pregnant, and also many places offer yoga classes for pregnant women and they are suppose to strengthen your muscles so that it is easier to push when the time comes, so that is something you may want to check into.

I did a lot of walking with my second (took my toddler in his stroller) and there a lot of pregnancy videos out there. I also asked my doctor if I could use my eliptical trainer and he said yes as long as I wasn't doing any bouncing, but don't start a new vigorous exercise routine unless you were before you were pregnant. Good Luck!

There are tons of pregnancy work out videos you can use. What you will find while watching them is that pretty much any moderate exercise is okay, just start out slow unless you have been consistently doing it prior. Some pregnancy books will have some that you should stay away from. You can also ask your doc...

I walk 20 minutes a day and do prenatal yoga once a week. My hospital actually offers a prenatal yoga class that isn't right smack in the middle of the day when I am working.

were you excercising before you got pregnant?
Doctor's say you shouldn't start any new work out routines while pregnant!
I recommend walking, it's easy on the joints and heard it helps bring on labor later in the pregnancy!
Good Luck!

Yes
walking is great, yoga ( for pregnancy), indoor swimming is great and a good workout and it does not even feel like you did. The YMCA has special classes for pregnancy (swimming)

Walking really helps you stay in shape, it also helps with the delivery some, but walk at your own pace.
