Although your doctor can provide you with their opinion about exercising, your body knows best! If there is an exercise a doctor says you can do but it is uncomfortable, listen to yourself. On the other side, remember your own exercise experience before your pregnancy, and remember that often doctors are speaking to the %u201caverage%u201d woman that may not have exercised pre pregnancy.Stick to a regular routine, especially if you had one prior to your pregnancy! It%u2019s definitely healthy to exercise while you are pregnant. It%u2019s best to stick to a regular routine. This helps to maintain the rhythm of your body. Starting and stopping exercise throughout a pregnancy is much harder on the body than simply maintaining a routine throughout your pregnancy. Of course, you will need to adapt or scale down your exercise routine as your tummy gets bigger, but setting and sticking to a workout schedule is a smart choice.Go slowly. You can probably still continue to do many of the forms of exercise that you already enjoy. However, you want to take it more slowly than usual. Slowing down will make all of your actions more fluid and safer for your body. Slowing down will also help you with the process of tuning into your body so that you can immediately sense if something is wrong. I suggest no crazy CrossFit-style workouts.Stay cool. Paying attention to the temperature when you exercise is a smart thing for pregnant women. You want to make sure that you don%u2019t overheat your body. This can lead to exhaustion and problems with your body. Make sure that you wear breathable clothing
