A Healthy You for a Healthy Baby
Studies have increasingly shown the importance of a regular fitness
routine during pregnancy. Not only is it good for your heart and
muscles, but it can help relieve some of the unpleasant side effects of
pregnancy, like morning sickness, aching back, fatigue, and
constipation. Some studies have even shown that being in good shape can
reduce your time in labor. It can also help with weight control, so
that you can keep in shape without depriving your baby of nutrition.
Yoga Booty Ballet's Teigh McDonough recently gave birth to a
healthy baby boy. During her pregnancy, she used her years of fitness
training and expertise to develop Baby On the Way, a workout designed
specifically for expectant mothers. Using gentle, effective techniques,
including yoga and stretching, Teigh helps mothers-to-be prepare their
bodies and minds for the amazing experience to come.
