What kinds of exercises are safe during pregnancy?

Exercising during pregnancy can be very beneficial for you and your baby. Women who remain active during pregnancy might help cope with labour much better and get back to shape much easier after birth. Women who exercise report having fewer problems during pregnancy and childbirth. However, one must not engage in highly strenuous exercises during pregnancy, especially if you were not active before getting pregnant. Some beneficial tips include engaging in a warm-up before exercising as well as a cooling down period afterwards, keeping yourself in daily activities such as going for a short walk, avoiding any highly stressful activities during hot temperatures, and making sure to keep yourself hydrated at all times. On the other hand, some type of exercise should be avoided during pregnancy. These activities include exercises that impose a high risk, such as skiing, gymnastics, horse riding, and cycling—exercising that require you to lay down on your stomach, especially after 16 weeks of pregnancy. Contact sport should also be avoided, such as kickboxing or judo, due to the high risk of being hit. one must also avoid Scuba diving as the baby is vulnerable to decompression sickness and gas embolism.
