I try to walk 30-1 hour a day. Haven't perfect at it especially in the past week but this is what I'm aiming for.
I have a treadmill. this is my norm:
4 minutes warm-up 2.5mph at a 2 incline.
workout period-3.2mph at a 4-6 incline
2.5 cool down...3 minutes on a 2 incline then 2 minutes on zero incline.

Both my mom and dh think this is too much since I'm pregnant. They think I should be on a zero incline, going 3.0 mph. Both disagree with pushing it for an hour too. I did tell my midwife about my exercise and she was thrilled but I didn't go into detail of what I laid out above.

true this is what I was doing pre-pregnancy but I don't feel I should change anything since I'm not that far along.
So am I going to fast or not?

If it's what you were doing pre-pregnancy it shouldn't be a problem. General rule of thumb is that whatever you were doing before you can continue. Talk to your midwife of course, but it doesn't seem to me like you're pushing it too hard.

my thoughts exactly. Talk to your provider and see what they say but my MW said I could continue doing what I was doing pre-pregnancy as long as I listened to my body if it ever started feeling like 'too much' at any point what so ever I needed to stop and back off a bit.

It's fine.

I walk 5-10km per day AND do weight lifting 3-4x per week, which is a lot less than I did before pregnancy.

Keeping active is important. There is no need to couch surf during pregnancy, despite what some people might try and tell you.

great, thank you!
I think for dh to listen he'd probably have to be there to hear my midwife tell me its okay or not. So I'll continue doing what I'm doing till my body or my midwife tell me other wise.
