Some recommended exercises for pregnant women include: swimming, walking, yoga, aerobics just to name a few.
Exercises to avoid include: skiing, water skiing and horseback riding.
Cross-country skiing can be safe but there is still an enormous risk of falling. Downhill skiing is definetely not encouraged due to the increased risk of falling.
Please see your doctor for more information.
