Walking to pregnant

Walking is one of the simplest and best exercise that a pregnant woman can practice safely, especially if she does not suffer from any complications or health problems during pregnancy. Walking does not need special equipment, and can be done at any time and place, as it enhances both the health of the mother and the fetus.

Benefits of walking for a pregnant woman:
1. Improving blood circulation
Walking helps to stimulate blood circulation, which relieves swelling in the feet and improves blood flow to the fetus.
2. Reducing back and joint pain
• Thanks to strengthening muscles and relieving pressure on the spine, walking relieves common lower back pain during pregnancy.
3. Reducing constipation
Regular physical activity, such as walking, stimulates bowel movement, and reduces constipation problems that many pregnant women suffer from.
4. Improving the psychological state
Walking helps reduce stress, anxiety, and improve mood thanks to the secretion of happiness hormones (endorphins).
5. Weight regulation
• Walking is an effective way to maintain a healthy weight during pregnancy, which reduces the risk of pregnancy diabetes or pregnancy poisoning.
6. Improving sleep
• Moderate physical activity improves sleep quality and helps the pregnant woman to sleep deeper and quieter.
7. Preparing for childbirth
• Walking strengthens the muscles of the pelvis and hips, which prepares the body for natural birth and increases its chances, especially in recent months.
