Exercise is very useful during pregnancy, but every pregnant
woman should consult with her doctor before starting the exercise. If there is
no specific risk situation for your pregnancy, your doctor will allow you to exercise.
Generally, it is recommended to start the exercises after the 3rd month.
The
benefits of exercise and sports in pregnancy:
- Reduces back and back pain.
- Reduces sleep problem.
- It allows the expectant mother to feel better both
physically and psychologically.
- Reduces posture and body deformities during pregnancy.
- Facilitates normal delivery, shortens, reduces pain.
- It allows the mother's body to recover more easily after
childbirth (Exercise should also be done after birth.)
- It increases the self-confidence of the mother.
- It allows the mother to gain weight more conveniently.
- It reduces swelling and edema during pregnancy.
Exercise should be done regularly during pregnancy. Taking a
break, sometimes doing it or not, can be harmful as well. For this reason,
exercise should be done regularly, on average 3-4 days a week (every 2 days).
The purpose of exercise is not to lose weight or prevent gaining weight, it
should not be done for this purpose. When you exercise, pay attention to your proper
nutrition, you will gain weight normally like any pregnant woman. Already heavy
and long exercises that will prevent weight gain during pregnancy are not
recommended. Exercise should not be excessively long and heavy enough to leave
you breathless. An average of 20-30 minutes of exercise is appropriate and
should be adjusted to avoid excessive sweating, fatigue, breathlessness,
palpitations. During the exercise, short rests and breathing should be done
every 5-10 minutes. Warm-up movements should always be done for 5 minutes
before starting exercise, and should be gradually released while stopping
exercise.
