Agree with Dr. F: Reduce the intensity of your exercise to keep your heart within the limits suggested by your doctor. Your doctor knows more about your health than any one of us on this forum. Exercising at lower intensity will not reduce the benefit of exercise. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
