Pregnancy and Exercise

If you are a pregnant woman and you are looking for a form of exercise to do while holding your child, swimming is the best exercise you can do. Swimming is low impact which is important as it will protect your baby. Exercise is also a good thing for a mother because it will ease the stress of having a baby. Because of the size of a pregnant woman’s stomach, swimming will be easier as well because they will float. When pregnant, low impact exercise is the way to go.
