Abstract

General guidelines • Drink plenty of water and eat a healthy snack before exercising. • Wear clothing that is comfortable. • It is best to exercise for 30 to 45 minutes 3 to 5 times each week. • You should be able to carry on a conversation during exercise. • Avoid getting overheated. Do not exercise on very hot or very cold days. • Avoid any type of exercise that can cause even mild trauma to your stomach. • You may need to change the type of exercise you do as your stomach gets bigger and your balance changes. • It is common to feel some mild cramping during exercise. Drink plenty of water and the cramping should stop after you are done exercising. सामान्य स्वस्थ गर्भावस्था के समय व्यायाम करना सुरक्षित और प्रोत्साहित करने वाला होता है। अगर आप गर्भावस्था धारण करने से पहले व्यायाम करती आ रही हैं, तो आप उसी स्तर से जारी रख सकती हैं। अगर आप अभी व्यायाम करना शुरू करना चाहती हैं, तो अपने डॉक्टर से बात करें और धीरे-धीरे शुरू करें। व्यायाम करने में अधिक मेहनत न करें। व्यायाम के प्रकार जानने के लिए अपने डॉक्टर से बात करें। कुछ स्वास्थ्य कारणों से आपके व्यायाम करने में बाधा पहुंच सकती है।
