You may continue the same exercise program you had before pregnancy unless we have recommended otherwise.

Recommendations:

• Decrease as needed for comfort in pregnancy
• Don’t try to train for a new level of exercising
• Make sure you can still talk through your exercise (if you are too winded to talk, you should probably stop.)
• Try not to lift more than 25 pounds
• Don’t exercise while lying on your back
• Try to avoid exercises that test your balance (skiing, tennis, horseback riding)
