Staying Fit During Your Pregnancy
Staying Fit During Your Pregnancy
Keeping fit during your pregnancy is great for you, not only will it help you keep your body toned but it also can help when it comes time to push that baby out. Every pregnant woman wants to be able to go back to her pre-pregnancy weight after the baby is born, but the only way to do that is to make sure you can. By excising or working out every day you are making sure you dont add fat to your body. During labor itll be much easier to push the baby if youve been strengthening your leg and stomach muscles. Who knows, it may even make labor a little bit shorter. Isnt that what we all want?
Plus when you are tired and just feeling a little blue, just by exercising you actually increase your energy.
Here are a few quick things you can do to stay fit during pregnancy, without really having to break out a sweat. Im sure by now youve heard of yoga, this is a very good thing for you to practice, especially if you havent always been in the best of shape. Not to worry, there are beginning levels here, you dont have to jump into the human pretzel right away. Try purchasing a set of small weights that you can use throughout the house, like hand weights or wrist weights that can use while walking. Instead of just laying on the couch while you rest you can be lifting small weights.
Get a chair and try doing a couple crunches, 5 to 10 in the beginning to make sure you dont pull anything. Dont worry you can always add to it as the weeks go on.
Try running, walking or jogging outside. Not only will this boost up your energy but itll also help get your spirits up, especially if youve been inside all day. Remember, if you are going for a walk to always bring a drink with you. You dont want to dehydrate out there. Always make sure that you are wearing comfortable shoes, before you leave the house. If you didnt always run, ask your doctor if you can. Sometimes a doctor may suggest you walk around the block at first and increase it from there, if you didnt always do it before you were pregnant.
If you can you may want to try going for a swim or try bicycling. However, if you find that you are accident prone you may want to stay away from the bike. A bike accident is something that can easily happen, even when youve always road a bike. Swimming can help you relax and stay cool. Take a dip in the pool near you, they may even have a swim class for pregnant women in your area. This would be a great way to meet other moms.
Whenever you are doing exercises, make sure you arent overdoing it. If you believe you could be stop immediately and take a break. You never want to do anything thatll harm the pregnancy.
BONUS : Stress Free Holidays During Your Pregnancy
Holidays can already be a stressful time, and mix that with pregnancy and hormones and you can be asking for trouble. Im not meaning for just the pregnant woman either, anyone and everyone in her path. Women already feel the pressure of having that perfect holiday for her family, which is probably why she decides to do 100 things at a time...stressing herself out in the end. However, she doesnt have to have a stressful holiday. There are five ways to make your holidays something to remember.
Mark the Dates
Go out and buy yourself a calendar for the holidays. Post it up on the wall and start marking dates. You wont need to stress out because you wont be double booking yourself. This can also help you in preplanning, mark the day you should send out the holiday cards or buy certain items.
Choosing Your Activities
During the holiday season you are sure to be invited to a couple of parties. It isnt necessary to attend every one of them. Decide which ones youll enjoy the most, maybe two or three and explain to the rest youll miss going but need some rest.
Choose Where Youll Go
Whether you want to stay home for the holidays with your own family or go across country to be with the entire family the decision should be yours. Dont feel guilty telling them you wont be making it this year, explain you need rest and traveling isnt very helpful. You may even want to extend an invitation for the family to come to your house instead.
Designating Jobs
If youve decided to have the holidays at your house you can still have a good time. Dont forget that asking for help is okay. No one expects you to do it all on your own. Do you really have to cook the ham, bake the potatoes, make a cake, clean the house and set up the tree all by yourself? Designate others to help, they'll feel happy youve given them something to do instead of sit around waiting while they watch you do it all.
Shopping Time
Shopping during the holiday season can be a nightmare that you dont need to attempt while pregnant. Its safer to just stay home during some of those sales. Instead you may want to try shopping online, not only will you be home but you can relax. The only thing youll need is a credit card and let your fingers do the work. You can even do all your holiday shopping early and have it delivered right to your front door. All you need to do is wrap it up and hide it in the closet.
Remember the holiday season is all about making memories thatll last. You may be pregnant but you dont have to sit at home the whole time stressed out, instead you can actually enjoy yourself with these helpful tips. Dont forget to take a little time off to do something just for you, after all you deserve it.
