Please read below, if you are pregnant:

The studies are:
Study 1: The University of Bath is recruiting pregnant women up to 17 weeks pregnant to participate in an observational study tracking activity and movement throughout early, middle, and late pregnancy. The aim of the study is to understand how motivation, fear of harming the baby, and physical activity in leisure time may be associated or change throughout pregnancy. The participant will be required to wear an activity monitor on their wrist for 7 days, whilst answering a short questionnaire twice a day. This is repeated 8 weeks apart twice more.
