[quote=Anonymous]Losing weight is unlikely. Tightening up your core is also unlikely to be successful because your core gets compromised as the muscles make room and relax for your stomach. So you have to be careful what exercises you do. However, as someone who exercised throughout pregnancy, appropriate cardio and exercise is a great idea. I kept up with many of my activites/classes, altering movements and moving off some activities if they didn't feel right. I also did some specific prenatal classes (which are designed for the weird stuff your body will do) and a lot of swimming. Keeping active really helped with my hip pain and sciatica which developed when I was pregnant. So, yes to working out but realize your body's going to do funny things and you're more vulnerable to certain injuries.[/quote]
