You may weigh yourself on the scale, but if you're not checking your body fat as well, you'll never know what your weight is really composed of...how much fat or muscle do you have?

This is a question that many first time mothers may ask themselves. Is it safe for me to exercise while I'm pregnant? This is not a black and white answer, it depends on many factors. First of all, is your pregnancy "the norm", or do you have complications? If you do, you need to seek medical advice from your doctor or midwife to find out if it's safe for you.
