Excercise while prego

My bf and i are talking about trying for baby #3. i gained a LOT of weight with both of my other pregnancies, and i want to ensure that that doesn't happen again the next time.
i'm getting an elliptical, and an excercise bike. i also do turbo jam videos and some strength training. i would assume thats all safe while prego, but i just wanted to ask and be sure. and i plan on asking my dr as well whenever i do get prego.
with my other 2 pregnancies excercise was never on my mind, except for walking. so i want to make sure i excercise and eat right this go round so that i don't gain a ton of weight like i did last time.

The best thing to do is ask your OB/GYN about the exercise and tell the doctor exactly what you want to do.0
