Welcome to Pregnant Exercises, where our goal is help you maintain an exercise routine throughout your pregnancy.

First, we would like to congratulate you on your pregnancy. We hope the best for you and your baby, and hope we can help make your pregnancy more enjoyable.

Perhaps you found us because your are wanting to find out if it’s okay to exercise during pregnancy.

Well, the short answer is “yes”, absolutely you can exercise during your pregnancy, and you should exercise throughout your pregnancy.

Maybe you found this site because you understand the importance of exercising during your pregnancy, and are looking for some tips on exercising during your entire pregnancy.

Exercising during a normal pregnancy can be done safely. It always important to check with your doctor before you start any exercise routine, so make sure you check with your doctor to make sure a moderate exercise routine is okay for you and your baby.

We know this is an exciting time, and it can also be a tying time, as your life takes a new direction. It can be easy to use your pregnancy as an excuse to stop exercising.

If you currently workout, don’t let yourself fall into the trap of thinking that you should quit exercising because you’re just going to put on weight anyway. Maintaining an exercise routine, while pregnant, will pay off as your pregnancy progresses, and also help you get back into pre-pregnancy shape after your pregnancy.

If you don’t currently exercise, and have not had an interest in exercising, you will find it especially difficult to start exercising now. But, I strongly encourage you to start exercising now, the sooner the better! It may be hard to get started now, but it will get more difficult the longer you put it off. Start exercising now, and you will be thanking me later.

Exercising during your pregnancy can help you enjoy your pregnancy more, can help you have a better delivery experience (if there is such a thing) and can help you get back into pre-pregnancy shape faster.

As the normal pregnancy weight comes on, exercise can help you feel better about yourself. It has also been reported that pregnant exercises can help reduce the chance of having a caesarean section.

Studies have also shown that your baby will benefit from your exercise during pregnancy. Babies born to moms who exercised during pregnancy were able to tolerate birth stress better, were more advanced in learning, and more mature in their behavior and emotional stability.

Pregnant exercises don’t have to include anything extreme like marathons, and of course it shouldn’t

Depending on your stage of pregnancy, your exercise plan could include your normal workout. It could be aerobics, swimming, running, walking, or simply being active going about your normal day.

We here at Pregnant Exercises hope we have helped you understand the importance of exercising during pregnancy, and hope you see how exercising during pregnancy can help you.

We hope you’ll come back as we will be providing more information on exercising during the different stages of your pregnancy, plus provide resources that will help you find the right type of safe pregnant exercises that will work for you.

If you need help getting started exercising today, we recommend you get your very own copy of the pregnant exercises plan. This easy to follow pregnancy exercise plan, will guide you through exercising safely, will stop you from piling on unwanted pounds, and it will help you feel good during your pregnancy.

I have never used an exercise ball. However, i have been hearing that it may prove to be of help during the labor but should be used only if one is already used to it.

I am 29 weeks preg now and am planning to start using it. Can anyone tell me:
- how is it used?
- if there is a brand that is better than the others?
- what size should i go for? (i m 5′4″ and weigh 146 pounds right now)
- what are the benefits during various phases of pregnancy, specially labor?

As a matter of fact, I am using it right now! I am sitting on it in front of my computer!…and I am bouncing up and down… very comfortable. Its the only way I can sit without being in agony because of my back! You dont necessarily need the ball for exercising, I only use it for relaxation.
In labour I will use it when I am tired of walking, I will, like I am doing now, just sit on it, and gently bounce up and down. Another very comfortable position is to stand on your knees and put your elbows on the ball, and then rock back and forth- this relieves my back pain instantly… more than that I dont even try, as my balance is not what its supposed to be!
I dont think brand name matters that much, and as for the size, you just need one that can hold about 150pounds when you sit on it- this should stand on the box.
I dont know the benefits, but I know for sure that it will help me relax!

Does anyone have suggestions on how to slow down weight gain in pregnancy?

Am just wondering how fo you do pelvic floor exercises and when should you start doing them when pregnant?
Im 11 wks gone, is it too early?

And also does anyone reccommend any other exercises to do while pregnant to keep in shape?

Thanks in advance
x

Squats are really good to do also. I have a Pilates for Pregnancy DVD and they mix in a lot of good exercises.

A birthing ball is good to exercise and birth with later down the road.

The earlier the better you will need the strength and stamina for labor.
