Pregnancy is one of the most wonderful experiences and journey in a woman’s life. During pregnancy and after delivery, a woman goes through many profound anatomical and physiological changes. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends regular and moderate-intensity exercise during pregnancy. Exercise is an excellent form of preventive medicine that keeps our bodies healthy and increases our ability to weather these numerous changes and stresses in mother-to-be or new moms’ lives.
