Try and get 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on most days of the week. If there are medical or obstetric complications, activity should be discussed with your doctor or physiotherapist.
Good types of activities while you're pregnant include:
• Walking
• Static cycling
• Clinical pilates
• Swimming
• Gentle restance training
• Water aerobics
Activities to avoid while pregnant:
• You should avoid high intensity activities, so aim for no more than 'somewhat hard'.
• High impact exercise.
• Lying on your back after approximately 16 weeks.
• Abdominal crunches or sit-ups.
• Becoming overheated.
And ensure good hydration and breast support when exercising during pregnancy.
