I did whatever i wanted during pregnancy as i figured when baby arrived my freedom would depart (and it did!). But i also found that i couldn't cope with the scary stuff so well, so maybe PG is it's own "protection". I actually know some women who won't even knit during PG as they think any activity which "takes you out of yourself" or diverts awareness away from the body and the baby within it is a bad idea. DD would have been pretty naked if i hadn't knitted during PG! LOL.
