Pregnant swimming
Continuing with our Special Pregnancy, today we pause at
one of exercise that can bring more benefits to future
mom, swimming. Exercising in water is one of the most
comfortable and effective stay in shape during
pregnancy.
The swimming, along with
other aquatic exercises as aquagim or exercises in the
water, swimming or resistance exercises for flexibility,
while maintaining the pregnant as a boost to your mood
to provide welfare in a way to feel a little tired and
agile and active. It is an exercise that, except medical
contraindication, we can make up the birth. There are
many advantages to make swimming during pregnancy.
* Through the water, is weighed only one tenth of
the usual, which is great once advanced pregnancy, when
movements "dry" are becoming increasingly difficult.
Then, water allows us to exercise harder and longer
without tired.
* The horizontal position of swimming prevents
recharges a body part in particular: the effort is
shared in a balanced way.
* In addition, the joints do not suffer as much as
they can do exercises out of the water, making it more
difficult to appear injuries.
* Another advantage, especially for the summer, is
that the exercises in the water do not produce excessive
heat if the water is not too hot, which also would be
good.
* The cardiorespiratory system of the future will
improve thanks to mom aerobic activity.
* The swimming can alleviate the pressure on the
pelvic area, which brings several benefits involved. It
relieves the pressure on the sciatic nerve, so it will
be a huge advantage for pregnant women who are bothered
sciatica. It also relieves the pressure in the rectum,
so it will be reduced hemorrhoids.
* The back pain was also relieved through swimming,
stretching movements, improving circulation and water
massage on sore areas.
* This improved circulation is also very beneficial
to the problems of heaviness in the legs, varicose veins
and fluid retention, which will decrease due to
swimming. Edema with all its consequences is one of the
inconvenience of pregnancy that can be prevented and
mitigated through swimming.
* To be active circulation in the legs and arms is
also good for alleviating the symptoms of carpal tunnel,
because they decompression joints that narrow tunnel.
* Swimming tones the muscles without force and
allowing the joints are released, remain flexible and
strong towards the final stage of pregnancy and
childbirth.
* In addition, helps control weight gain during
pregnancy because they burn more calories that we do not
need.
* The majority of our blood oxygenation also comes,
of course, the baby, so he or she also will notice
welfare.
First and foremost, we must bear in mind that we must
follow the dictates of our agency, yes, but also our
doctor who might consider that, albeit rare, exercise
swimming is not suitable for our case for some specific
reason.
Some pregnancies require special precautions (cases of
hypertension, heart disease, asthma, bronchitis,
influenza, obesity, diabetes…) and will also be taken
into account if the mother has thus far been sedentary
for a proper exercise plan. The medical specialist will
advise and to authorize the exercise to continue.
And in any case, swimming during pregnancy is an
activity that we enjoy so relaxed so that is pleasant
for the baby and all its benefits become effective.
