Exercise While Pregnant

Exercising in all phases of pregnancy is an excellent way to keep mom and baby healthy. Physical activity while pregnant can lead to a decreased risk of gestational diabetes, cesarean birth and preterm birth. It is also an excellent way to reduce hip and back pain, lower stress (thanks to those endorphins), decrease constipation, manage symptoms of depression and anxiety, improve postpartum recovery, and help with weight loss after giving birth.
