Exercise during pregnancy

Everyone (friends, families & youself) will be trilled once you are pregnant. Being a regular gym goer, you will not want to stop going to gym and/ or exercise even though you know you are on your way into motherhood. Nevertheless, advice from your doctor/ gynae is important to ensure that your pregnancy is not affected. Like most women, I always want to be a slim mama (like Angelina Jolie during her pregnancy). So, my yogas and rpms are still my regular exercises, even though I plan to perform them less strenously.
Nevertheless, once your pregnancy starts to show, you are adviced to go to specialised gym and /or prenatal centers who offers prenatal and postnatal exercises/ activities for mum to be.
In short, do not stop exercising (unless otherwise adviced by your physician) if you want to be a beautiful mama before and after.
