Exercising Before, During and After Pregnancy
Physical activity during pregnancy can help maintain fitness, support overall wellness, reduce common discomforts, and prepare the body for labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery.
Stay active through every stage of pregnancy
There are usually many questions that come to mind when planning how to exercise before, during, or after pregnancy. Exercise can improve or maintain physical fitness, support wellness, and help with some common discomforts of pregnancy.
The more active and fit you are during pregnancy, the easier it may be to adapt to your changing shape and weight gain. It can also help you cope with labor and gradually get back into shape after birth.
Exercise Tips for Pregnancy
Keep up your normal daily physical activity or exercise, such as walking, yoga, dancing, or light training, for as long as you feel comfortable and your provider allows it.
Benefits During Pregnancy
Regular exercise may help improve posture, decrease backaches and fatigue, relieve stress, support stamina for labor, and help reduce the risk of gestational diabetes.
After Pregnancy
After welcoming your baby, it is important to focus on bonding, healing, and returning to movement gradually. Some gentle postpartum exercises can help your body recover safely.
