Exercise is the last thing that a pregnant women would wish to do. The benefits of exercise for pregnant women and their developing fetuses are widely known. Based on previous research findings, over one-third (36 percent) of pregnant moms cite time as the main reason for not participating in regular aerobic exercise. For non-exercising pregnant women, employment was a factor in maternal weight and BMI, such that those who were worked outside of the home had lower BMIs.

The researchers theorize that pregnant mothers who exercise may manage their time more effectively than non-exercisers. Because exercisers sleep and read slightly more than non-exercisers and spend slightly less time on the computer, researchers conclude that exercisers are simply more likely to fit exercise into their day. Non-exercisers may suffer from a perception that they lack time to exercise, when they need to manage their time differently to fit more physical activity into their day.

Pregnancy the most needed time for me or my child .This is the perfect time to get back in to good habits not because we really wanted them but we really need them.Most of our life is spent judging what we actually wanted.How we should have been.You are lucky you can make your child how you yourself always wanted to be.

I was always clumzy ,lying in bed, irregular schedules,weird eating habits.I wonder Is this what I shall gift my baby? NO ,a big NO.If  possible I  wish  would give all the best qualities I can give to my child. and Yes it  is possible.Ayurveda gave me the freedom to choose qualities  for my child good or bad. Ayurveda has Garbhasanskar theory which can help a couple deliever the best baby in the world. It can help us not let our baby absorb our negative qualities right at the time of  pregnancy.

According to Dr. May, "if a pregnant mother does some type of physical activity while watching TV or talking on the phone, or parks her car at the farthest point from the store each time, she will increase her daily physical activity and ultimately improve her health and the health of her baby." Such a small step can provide benefits to mom and the fetus, and take no extra time from the daily routine."
