How much do you exercise while pregnant?

Question

I exercise very intensely and quite often, but now I’m 9 weeks pregnant and I’m not sure how much is possible without hurting my baby. How much do you guys workout? What’s your favorite exercise to do later on in your pregnancy? All responses are appreciated!

Answer

My doc said you should be able to carry on a slightly winded concersation while working out and no core excersizes until 3rd trimester.

Answer

I kept up my pre-pregnancy exercise routine  for as long as my body would let me. You'll feel uncomfortable long before you harm the baby.

Answer

I exercise 5 days a week but have definitely taken it down a few notches since pregnancy. The general rule I think is to keep your heartrate below 140 bpm, but since everyone's fitness level is a little different, the updated rule is to exercise at a level you can still talk at. If you're completely out of breath regularly I'd say that's probably too much, but I tend to err on the side of caution with my own workout routine.

Answer

I wasn't a big exerciser before I got pregnant, but I do try to do a decent amount of walking just to keep myself moving. I usually go until I'm tried lol.

Answer

I think it depends what you mean by very intensely. Can you elaborate a bit more? Congrats btw!!
