Shamy,
HI! I just wanted to add that there are many differences between TTC and actually being pregnant (as you well know!), and exercise while you are TTC is great! Yoga, pilates, walking...or any exercise you have been doing previously actually is beneficial to your body!
However, since you said that you experienced spotting during your previous pregnancies, you would want to talk with your doctor about what types of exercises are appropriate while you are actually pregnant (none of these exercises would prevent you from conceiving). Depending on the reason for your spotting during pregnancy, your doctor may suggest limiting exercises that are high-intensity or high-impact, which pilates and walking are neither!
