Many women are concerned about continuing their exercise routines during pregnancy. If you engage in high-risk sports such as surfing or rock climbing, where a serious impact can occur, this seems prudent. But for more run-of-the-mill activities, like jogging or aerobics, you might be able to continue well into your third trimester. Always consult your physician for any special guidance about how your pregnancy should influence your workout. In most cases she will tell you that with minimal modifications you can keep it up!
As you get into the more advanced stages of pregnancy you may find that it’s hard to perform the usual motions, get creative and find alternatives that work for you! Exercising with a partner who can perform emotional and physical support is also great during pregnancy, a special time for both members of the couple.
