Exercise/fitness routines before and during pregnancy?
So Im in OK shape, I could pick up and run a mile or maybe more if I wanted to. I have an awful time sticking to a routine and typically do FIRM workouts (they are cardio and weights mixed). Well lately I have been doing two mornings of cardio while my daughter is at preschool and trying to squeeze in some more days such as taking her for walks and maybe one FIRM workout totaling 4 days a week. Im trying to stay away form the FIRM workouts since they are somewhat intense and there is a lot of twisting, reaching and abs. I love doing pilates, so is this something good to do while TTC or even possibly in early pregnancy (took a test and it was negative but I think it was too soon). I know I shouldn't increase intensity right now. Once I find out I am, I plan on keeping up with my 2 cardio mornings and ordering Denise Austin's Fit and Firm pregnancy and 10 minutes prenatal pilates. What was your routine before and during pregnancy?
