Default Can exercise cause early delivery?

I am at 17 weeks. So far I have been working out regularly while pregnant. Does exercising cause you to have the baby early though? I definitely do not want to risk a premature baby and am wondering if I should cut down on my daily workout.

In the vast majority of cases, exercise does not bring on preterm labor. A few women, however, are prone to preterm labor and should avoid exercise late in the pregnancy. Have your doctor check your cervix at around 28 weeks to see if it has softened, thinned or dilated. If any of these have happened, you should limit your physical activity until you deliver the baby.
