FIT MOMMIES - Seen on KUTV Channel 2 (Fresh Living)

Pregnancy isn't a "get-out-of-gym-free" pass... In fact, if you're expecting, working out is more important than ever - for you and your bundle of joy.

Moms who workout while pregnant are less likely to have morning sickness or gestational diabetes! They also often have shorter labor, less digestive issues and an easier time bouncing back afer birth. But, breaking a sweat isn't only great for mom, baby gets some huge benefits too. For them, an active mom means a lower chance of childhood obesity, sleeping better at night and they're more likely to workout themselves as they get older (I've seen all of these to be true with my first baby!)

*All pregnant women should check with their doctor before working out.

It's important to keep your active heart rate to 140 beats per minute or less, don't get overheated or extremely out of breath. Perhaps most important, don't expect gains or major losses during pregnancy... this isn't a time to pack on muscle or drop 50LBS, instead focus on body weight exercises, stretches and moderate aerobic workouts  (stationary bike, swimming, fast walking)
