Publisher's Synopsis
The first thing you need to know about tips to stay fit during pregnancy is that it's not just about your health and the baby's health. It's also about the health of your body after the baby is born.
You may have heard that exercising during pregnancy can cause birth defects. This is true only if you exercise in a way that puts undue strain on your joints, ligaments, and muscles. Prenatal yoga and walking are safe, but high-impact exercises like running should be avoided until after delivery.
The same is true of dieting during pregnancy: You'll need to make some changes, but you don't have to give up all the foods you love. In fact, you might find that a good diet makes you feel better throughout your pregnancy.
