These are typical questions we receive about exercising from most mothers-to-be. Often mothers-to-be have a misconception about exercising during pregnancy.
Studies show that exercising while pregnant is extremely beneficial for both the mother and baby. In addition, if you love fitness pre-pregnancy, then the good news is you can maintain your fitness whilst pregnant. Pregnancy can be tough on mothers - the body is undergoing a lot of change (apart from growing a little human!) and can take a toll both mentally and physically. Exercising will help with pain and also with improving mood, and the quality of sleep.
Exercising can also potentially shorten the time in labour (where do we sign up?!).
