I would discuss this with your dr.
I know they encourage some exercise but are against other types.

It is okay to exercise while pregnant -- especially if you were already working out. What I've heard and read is that you don't want your heart rate to go over 140. At that point your body temp raises too much for the baby.

I've seen woman who ran a marathon while pregnant -- but it's best to check with your doctor.

There are also certain exercises you shouldn't do at certain stages -- like ones on your back.
