There are several aspects to a woman’s fitness during pregnancy. It is important to make sure that she does develop gestational diabetes during this period (which predisposes to her contracting the lifestyle disease later in life) and also to ensure that her weight is managed appropriately. Excess weight gain during the pregnancy period is very commonly observed since women minimise physical activity, in order to ensure safety, and also indulge unabashedly in food cravings. Back Pain is commonly observed during and after pregnancy if the back is not strong enough to carry the extra weight during pregnancy. Fitness also involves the mother’s ability to carry the foetus for the full-term and deliver the baby without complications and preferably without surgery. Pre-natal fitness is also crucial to quick recovery post-pregnancy. Many women struggle with regaining their pre-pregnancy form after delivery and this also puts enormous psychological stress on their ability to enjoy the precious moments of motherhood.
