Exercising during pregnancy can boost your energy, improve your mood and even alleviate some of the aches and pains of pregnancy, including backaches, constipation and swelling.
If you're looking for a fitness regimen that will help you keep fit throughout your pregnancy, consider doing some water aerobics. Being in water will take the weight off your legs and back and you will feel more comfortable working out.
Most types of exercise are safe during pregnancy, according to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, including low-impact aerobic programs and water aerobics, but consult with your primary care provider before beginning a pregnancy exercise program to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
