Congratulations -- you’re pregnant! The age-old question of how to properly exercise during pregnancy is one that new moms-to-be, as well as more seasoned moms, often ask their doctors, friends and fitness professionals.

So, listen to your body! It will tell you what’s too much and when you should take it easy.
