- Drink plenty of fluids to counteract the dehydrating effects of exercise.
- Dress in comfortable layers to ensure adequate ventilation. You might overheat more quickly than you are used to.
- Consider running smaller loops and staying close to home. That way, if fatigue strikes early, you can easily walk home.
- Wear sunblock. Sun exposure can exacerbate the "mask of pregnancy," a pigmentation darkening that affects many women during pregnancy.
- Try using a special maternity belt once you begin to put on weight in your midsection; some women find the extra support beneficial. These are available in most maternity stores.
