When should I start exercising?

Question

I'm 28 weeks pregnant when should I start walking a lot, and exercising to make labor easier?

Answer

You should have started at the beginning. You can do light exercise now, maybe one mile or two miles slow walk everyday or some swimming as it's very easy on your muscles.

Answer

Ideally, pre-pregnancy. I learned in my labor and delivery class that athletic women tend to cope better during labor. I would start ASAP!

Answer

Unless your doctor told you otherwise,  you can start working out as soon as you find out! Working out through the entirety of your pregnancy is perfectly safe,  just drink tons of water and increase your calorie intake. I belong to a women's only gym and it's a haven for working out without scrutiny.
