Exercising during pregnancy

When do you/can you start exercising when pregnant? Prior to getting pregnant, I was doing HIIT 1 hour x2 a week, now I can barely do 30mins without feeling unwell. I'm listening to my body because I'm feeling still nauseous in early 2nd trimester, so im not going to push too hard:( I did abit of swimming, but also cannot sustain for too long. When did u start exercising again? I'm feeling very sluggish without it- but it could be due to the pregnancy.

Hi there i’m only week 8 and also experience the same challenge where my stamina is not as good as pre-pregnancy. I used to do HIIT 2-3 times a week too but I stop now due to breathlessness and fatigue. Now i opt for less strenuous exercises like stretching, 30-45mins brisk walk and glute bridges exercise instead.
