ARTICLE: GET PHYSICALLY FIT MAMA

By Dana Sullivan for Your Baby Today
***************************************************

Exercising during your pregnancy is one of the best things you can do
for yourself--and your baby. Regular exercise (walking or swimming for
30 minutes three or more times a week, for example) will help you
control your weight, reduce the risk of some illnesses associated with
pregnancy, and may also help you sleep better at night. Add some
strength-training to keep your muscles toned and strong, and to help
with your posture as your center of gravity shifts along with your
growing belly.

The latest research shows that regular exercise is not only smart and
safe for pregnant women, but may also enhance their experience. "Many
women say that exercise reduces the aches and pains associated with
pregnancy, and boosts their energy levels and self-esteem," says
prenatal fitness expert Larry A. Wolfe, Ph.D., director of the clinical
exercise physiology laboratory at Queen's University, in Ontario,
Canada.

Wolfe says that while there's no proof that exercise shortens labor or
makes it less painful, or that it will prevent certain complications,
many women who have participated in his research have told him that it
gave them the stamina they needed to endure labor. Also, that being in
shape made recovery from childbirth easier.

Even if you hadn't been exercising before your pregnancy, there's no
reason you can't start a mild program now (with your physician's
approval, of course). In fact, if there are no complications associated
with your pregnancy, your physician will probably recommend it. "Our
research suggests that regular exercise may reduce a women's risk of
developing two of the most dangerous illnesses associated with
pregnancy: gestational diabetes and preeclampsia," says Wolfe.

That's reason enough to ask your physician to recommend a prenatal
fitness class. Remember, this isn't a time to train hard; your goal
should be to maintain a fitness level you feel good about so you can
reap the physical and emotional benefits during your pregnancy,
withstand labor, and recover from childbirth more quickly.

Exercise Guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and
Gynecologists

Regular exercise gives you energy and keeps you healthy during
pregnancy. It also helps you feel better during a time when your body is
undergoing tremendous change. But it's not a time to overdo it. Here is
a summary of the current exercise guidelines from the American College
of Obstetricians and Gynecologists:

Continue mild to moderate exercise routines at least three days a week.

After 20 weeks, avoid doing exercises on your back, since they can
decrease blood flow to the uterus.

Never exercise to exhaustion.

Don't exercise in hot, humid weather or when you are sick with a fever.

Drink extra water on the days you exercise.

Avoid activities that may cause you to lose your balance, especially
during your third trimester.

Stop exercising immediately and call your physician if you experience
any of the following symptoms: pain; vaginal bleeding; dizziness or
lightheadedness; increased shortness of breath; rapid heartbeat;
difficulty walking; uterine contractions and chest pain; fluid leaking
from the vagina.
