Embrace Your Inner Peace
One of the most common questions asked by the pregnant patients visiting in any OPD is regarding exercise during pregnancy, whether exercise is safe and whether it can be done during pregnancy. As long as your pregnancy is healthy and you are relatively normal, exercise is very safe in pregnancy. Exercise does not increase the risk of miscarriage, low birth weight babies or preterm labour. Although exercise is safe, We would advise you to consult us before starting exercises during pregnancy. If you have been active before pregnancy, you can continue the same amount of activity throughout pregnancy. But if you haven’t been doing exercises, it is advised to start exercising during pregnancy.
What is advised is moderate intensity of walking, which should be at least 150 minutes in a week. So that would be at least 30 minutes for five times in a week. If you haven’t been exercising earlier, you can start with five minutes of walking and add up five minutes every week till you reach the 30 minute target. The intensity should be moderate by which mean that you are sweating and your heart rate is rising. But when you are doing the activity you are able to talk comfortably and you are not breathless.
Finally, We want to stress that exercising is very important so that it can increase your chance of having a normal delivery at the end of 9 months.
