A common misconception about pregnancy is that you can’t exercise while pregnant. On the contrary, light to moderate exercise during pregnancy can help relieve fatigue and nausea in addition to boosting your mood and helping you recover quicker after the birth. In addition to regular gynecological check-ups in The Woodlands, here are a few safe exercises for expecting mothers. Swimming This is by far one of the best aerobic exercises for pregnant women. Not only does it increase circulation, but it also relieves the pressure on your joints and back. The cool water can also relieve puffy ankles, nausea, and sciatic pain. Stay along the wall in case you get winded. Walking Walking is easy to fit into any schedule and you can continue this exercise right up until delivery. Walking actually helps many women deal with early contractions. It is important, however, to avoid uneven terrain to reduce your chances of a misstep and falling. Partner up with your significant other, a friend, or other expectant mothers so you aren’t alone in case of an emergency. Indoor Cycling Unlike running, cycling indoors will not put any extra stress on your knees or ankles. You can set your own pace in the comfort of your home or at the gym. Indoor cycling is also safer because you avoid common hazards that come with sharing the road with motorists and the chance of falling off your bike. Yoga & Pilates These exercises increase flexibility and help you build muscles strength. Classes and exercises specifically designed for pregnant women will help strengthen your core muscles, ease backaches, and help you focus your breathing. They also help you connect with other expectant mothers in a socially supportive environment. Avoid hot-room classes, however, to avoid dehydrating yourself unnecessarily. The next time you come in for a gynecological check-up The Woodlands, ask your physician before starting any exercise regime.
