It's a good idea to take some form of regular exercise if your current pregnancy[or previous ones}is free from complications. Exercise helps promote good posture, tones and strengthens muscles in the stressed areas{particularly the back,abdomen and pelvis},and improves blood circulation and psychological well being{among other benefits}

There are three other muscle groups aside from your heart that you should concentrate on when doing exercises. That is the back, abdomen and pelvic muscles. Strengthening your back muscles to improve your posture will reduce the strain of pregnancy on your lower back.Strong abdominal muscles will make it easier for you to support the increasing weight of your baby.And the pelvic muscles will prevent urinary incontinence and make the perineum less likely to tear during childbirth.

Exercise is best. There's increasing medical evidence to show that exercise, even vigorous workout, is healthy during pregnancy. Those pregnant women who exercised vigorously were more likely to carry their babies to full term compared with women who exercised less or not at all.

Walking, swimming, riding a stationary bicycle, and joining a prenatal aerobics class are all excellent exercise choices for a pregnant woman.

Exercise that require jerky, bouncy movements and being outside in hot weather are not good choices,though. Don't try deep knee bends, sit-ups and toe touches. Other sports to avoid include rock climbing and horseback riding.

Wear supportive bra and properly fitting athletic shoes while exercising. Stop if you feel dizzy, faint,overheated or in pain. And don't forget to drink plenty of water.
