Andrea Page, founder of Fit Mom Canada, offers prenatal classes such as this Fit Mom 2 Be class that helps pregnant women maintain strong muscular balance for pregnancy.
As well, women practice exercises that will help them endure the physical demands of labor.
Prenatal exercise can make you less susceptible to constipation, swelling, leg cramps, varicose veins, fatigue, and extra weight gain. Prenatal exercise can be especially effective when used in conjunction with compression support stockings. Be sure, however, to check with your medical doctor before trying anything new while pregnant. Whether it is a new workout routine or cosmetics, it is important to be very cautious for the duration of the pregnancy. The right prenatal exercise and care can have a positive effect.
Research has also shown that active pregnant women in the 1st trimester reduce their chance of miscarriage by up to 40%.
