ok maybe i'm just a little bit anal about getting fat , but does anyone out there know of any safe exercises to do when you are pregnant? i've heard so many rumors oh you can't do this or you can't do that etc... and i also don't mean walking, duh! i know i can walk, and i don't like to run unless im being chased lol, i like pilates and i did them but now im a bit afraid to them as i don't want to pose any risk to my baby. anyone know leave a comment thanks.

Do you get any magazines for pregnant women? :) I used to get them while I was pregnant and I saved all the articles on exercising. :) I had been doing pilates and a little yoga before I got pregnant.
Anyway, I started off slow but I didn't start exercising again until about 6 or 7 months pregnant. I wish I had started sooner. :)

Most doctors will tell you to keep doing the same thing you always do. I have had friends that where still doing arobics in their eight month. I was doing all the same exercises with my three pregancies as I did when I wasn't pregnant. I did situps, stepping, cardio.
Ask your doctor but I'm sure they will tell you the same thing.
