What should you be doing physically during pregnancy?! The 2019 Canadian guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations to promote fewer newborn complications and maternal health benefits: decreased risk of pre-eclampsia, gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, cesarean section, instrument delivery, urinary incontinence, excessive weight gain, depressive symptoms, improved blood glucose, decreased back and pelvic pain, and improved sleep! Ask your provider if you have any risks that you should be aware of that might change the recommended amount for you. Happy exercising!
