Exercise during pregnancy

There are mums-to-be who believe they should eat for two and rest as often as they can during pregnancy. Recent studies suggest otherwise. Researchers from the University of Alberta analyses 28 studies that looked into the relation between maternal exercise and the influences it had on babies. It was found that women who exercised during pregnancy were 31 per cent less likely to have a large baby, without increasing the odds of having a small or premature baby. The probability of having a Cesarean birth also dropped by 20 per cent.      Gaining too much weight and not engaging in physical activity during gestation has been linked to obesity in children. Researchers say that engaging in moderate exercise has been found to reduce the chances of the baby becoming obese in childhood significantly.
