Exercising while pregnant can help you to improve your core muscles and help you prepare the muscles used while in labour. It will help to ease or prevent back pain and other aches, boost your mood and energy levels, help you sleep better, prevent excess weight gain, increase stamina and muscle strength.  Exercise during pregnancy might also reduce the risk of gestational diabetes and pregnancy-related high blood pressure, as well as lessen the symptoms of postpartum depression.  Being pregnant can place a lot of stress on your pelvic floor muscles. Your pelvic floor can become weak and stretched from as early as 12 weeks into your pregnancy. Constipation, which is common in pregnant women, can put even more strain on your pelvic floor.  It is of extreme importance to exercise these muscles.
