Exercising while pregnant may seem like a bad idea to some or even impossible for others. However, there are many ways you can use exercise to stay fit and healthy both during and after pregnancy, which is a great benefit for your body, your baby, and your mental wellness.

Mama Strength wishes you and your family a happy and safe holiday season and all the best for the New Year 2023!

At Mama Strength, we know that pregnancy is an exciting and totally new experience, one that will probably raise a lot of questions. It is, therefore, imperative that you are well informed about your prenatal care and have accurate expectations about what to expect during labor.

Whether you have just become a mother or are expecting a baby, it’s essential to maintain your physical and mental well-being. Therefore, by exercising with a pre/ postnatal personal trainer, you will be able to stay in shape while connecting with like-minded individuals that can brighten up your day. However, since safety is imperative, it’s crucial to do your due diligence.

Besides the obvious baby bump and weight gain, the musculoskeletal system undergoes many unseen changes during pregnancy. As the belly expands, the abdominals stretch and the back muscles shorten, the diaphragm changes to accommodate the growing belly, affecting breath mechanics. The rib cage slides backwards out of the way of the pregnancy resulting in short, shallow chest breaths. Things don’t just snap back into place after the baby arrives, and the challenges of going back to working out after childbirth go far beyond just finding the time and energy as a new mom.

Having a baby is undeniably one of the most beautiful gifts bestowed on women, but there are many aspects to consider. One of the obvious and utmost important factors is an expectant mother’s physical health and well-being. A woman should prepare her body for pregnancy by living a balanced lifestyle that includes good nutrition and exercise.
