Theres huge debate about this but doctors
will usually tell you to listen to your
body and if anything is uncomfortable and
causes pain then to stop. Any abdominal
crunches are not advisable but most other
exercises are fine just make sure you
drink lots of water and dont get over
heated!!!!

I dont think ur supposed to do crunches or
anything that involves u lying on ur
back(which cuts bloodflow to the placena)
which is why were not supposed to sleep on
our back either...As long as u were
excersicing before, everything should be
fine...Like running and stuff like that,
but if not, dont do it! Start off slow
and dont do any weight training stuff most
def!

Just do walking, jazzersize, arm weights
things like that. Never strain yourself,
but alot of walking is very good
