Anyone doing NROLFW while pregnant?

I will be starting stage 5 this week, but just found out I'm pregnant! I'm planning on continuing with the program for now since I'm not very far along, and will ask my OB (once I find one) about continuing. I'm estimating that I'll finish the program when I'm about 16 weeks, if I do the bare minimum.

If you have done this program (or other similar ones) while pregnant, what modifications did you make?

    Hi & Congrats!

    I was doing NROLFW when I got pregnant and continued until severe morning sickness set in. I would have continued but I was so sick there was no way. I think if you're symptom free and your doctor or midwife is ok with it, go on. Once you get further along it would be hard to continue to lift heavy in my experience.

    I modified by eliminating the jump squats and anything that got my heart rate too high.
