Personal suggestions
At time when my sister was pregnant 1 year before . she do regular exercise (walking) and at the last trimester when due date is nearing before that time . she also did sit and stand exercise and it end up with normal delivery with no complication..I recommend all mothers except contraindications to walk daily..slow walk...For healthy and happy baby and mother 💕
If their is  any doubt .ping your doctor and ask  their recommendations too...
