Though many mothers-to-be experience common health problems during pregnancy, exercise can help alleviate those very problems. It improves circulation and prevents back pain by toning and building muscles to support your tummy. Rule out issues that stem from circulation too: constipation, hemorrhoids, varicose veins, leg cramps and ankle swelling.
Regain some lost energy with regular exercise. A strengthened endurance will help you get through the day easier. It will also ensure a better sleep at night, too.
Scared of those mood swings? Exercise heightens your mood and will help you feel better about yourself (even as your tummy grows!)
Gaining weight is okay in pregnancy. But keep an eye on your weight gain. Experts warn mothers of the harder risk to lose the baby weight if you gain more than 25-35 pounds during pregnancy.
YWCA Knoxville offers a "Baby Bump" class for mothers before and after pregnancy. Led by Abigail Hallmark, this exercise class is held on Saturdays from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Call (865) 523-6126 for more information.
