• Answer #1

  Your not suppose to have your arms over your head too much, it increases the chance that the cord with be wrapped around the baby's neck when its born.
  Other wise, its perfectly healthy (and encouraged) to be active while pregnant. Though you shouldn't start anything new that your body isn't already use to (too much stress) and I would run any fitness play by your doctor just to make sure because every mother, baby and pregnancy is unique. But yeah, activity keeps you (and your baby) healthy and makes for an easier delivery. You just gotta find the level thats right for you.
