Exercise during pregnancy can make joint ligaments more flexible and soft, which is beneficial to delivery, especially for obese pregnant women. Exercise can consume calories and reduce the risk of gestational diabetes and pregnancy-induced hypertension, but it is necessary to control the amount of exercise and prohibit large-scale exercise. At the same time, exercise during pregnancy should be carried out under the guidance of professional teachers, and diet should be arranged reasonably with the cooperation of nutritionists.
Special reminder: In case of threatened abortion, threatened premature delivery, acute infectious diseases and vaginal bleeding, pregnant women should stop physical exercise.
Extended data
Healthy pregnant women can exercise properly during pregnancy. Exercise can increase the consumption of pregnant women, accelerate metabolism, promote the digestion and absorption of nutrients, and enhance the elasticity of physique and muscle ligaments. At the same time, in the process of exercise, we should choose the appropriate exercise mode and time according to our physical condition and adaptability.
Generally, the fitness exercise during pregnancy is usually 3-4 times a week, with 30-40 minutes each time, and the pregnant woman can't reach the level of fatigue during the exercise, but should feel comfortable and relaxed.
For expectant mothers in different pregnancy periods, the sports suitable for them are different.
Generally speaking, pregnant women should do more aerobic exercise within 16 weeks. Swimming is the first choice, which can improve the cardiopulmonary function, increase the flexibility of the body and enhance physical strength. It is a kind of exercise suitable for pregnant women.
In the second trimester of pregnancy, that is, between 4 and 7 months, for expectant mothers who can't swim, walking in the morning and evening is also a good exercise, which not only promotes gastrointestinal peristalsis, but also increases endurance and is very helpful for childbirth.
In the late pregnancy, that is, 8- 10 months, especially the expectant mother who is near the expected date of delivery, she gains weight and has a heavy physical burden. At this time, they must pay attention to safety during exercise, and it is best not to exceed 15 minutes at a time. The movement in this period highlighted the word "slow", mainly walking slowly.
In addition, it is worth noting that pregnant women need to pay close attention to abdominal pressure during exercise, which is to closely feel whether their lower abdomen is uncomfortable. With the enlargement of the uterus, the pressure on the abdomen will increase, and the vibration generated during exercise will increase the load on the uterine ligaments and pelvic floor muscles, especially for pregnant women.
