I'd stay away from the jacuzzi though - it probably heats up your core temp too much. We keep our hot tub turned down to about tepid bath water temp, and have for the last 3 years. I know a little water gets up in there when you bathe or swim, and I guess I've started dwelling on it. Join now to personalize. Just stay out of the jacuzzi, swimming in normal temps is fine according to my Dr.
Swimming, in particular, is ideal for expecting moms since it makes you feel weightless and can help relieve common early pregnancy symptoms like nausea and swelling. As long as you've been spinning your wheels for at least six months, indoor cycling is another safe, low-impact exercise that's safe up through pregnancy. Just make sure to drink plenty of water and take breaks if you get super winded or overheated.

If you expect to ovulate soon, this is peak babymaking season. As ovulation approaches, your cervix tends to rise up in your vagina, soften, and open slightly.
You can monitor this particular fertility sign yourself. Ovulation typically occurs 14 days before the start of the next menstrual cycle—not 14 days after the end of the last one. Does your partner like to spend hours on the exercise bike at the gym? Tell him to hop on the treadmill instead.
A study at the University of California School of Medicine revealed that men who cycle more than km per week put their fertility at risk. The repeated banging of the groin against the bicycle seat can damage critical arteries and nerves. You can have too much of a good thing—at least when it comes to exercise. The moral of the story? Are you already physically active? Walking at a reasonably fast pace for 20 to 30 minutes three or more times each week will help you to develop good strength, stamina, and cardiovascular health.
Wondering if you should pull out the thermometer and the temperature chart? Some couples like to try to predict their fertile days by watching for the temperature shift that typically accompanies ovulation; others prefer to let nature take its course.
If you decide to take your basal body temperature BBT to track your most fertile days, pick up a digital thermometer rather than relying on the old-style mercury thermometer. Each of these activities can affect the accuracy of your reading. Your doctor may even recommend that your partner refrain from ejaculating during the days leading up to your most fertile period.
If you got a bad sleep last night, make a note on your temperature chart. Getting less than three consecutive hours of sleep can make your BBT reading unreliable.
