Is it really good to walk more when you are pregnant?

My cousin's daughter-in-law was 2 1 week pregnant and experienced severe morning sickness in the early pregnancy. During this time, her condition gradually improved. Mother-in-law advised her to go out for a walk more every day to give birth naturally. But sometimes I still feel a little tired and don't want to move, but I want to give birth naturally, and I often struggle whether to go out for a walk more.

Is it true that "going out for a walk every day during pregnancy can give birth smoothly"? First of all, it must be affirmed that exercise is really helpful for childbirth. Especially the way of walking, the right intensity of exercise, suitable for pregnancy, has many benefits for pregnant mothers.

Walking helps to improve productivity.

As we all know, productivity is the most important factor for the success of natural childbirth. If the pregnant mother's productivity is good, it can not only shorten the labor process and avoid dystocia, but also avoid tearing due to uneven stress.

"Walking, walking" exercise mode can exercise the pelvic muscles and thigh muscles of pregnant mothers, so that pregnant mothers have a good level of productivity.

② Walking can exercise cardiopulmonary function.

During childbirth, not only do pregnant mothers need to work hard with the strength of contractions, but they also need to adjust their breathing state between contractions to prepare for the next contraction.

Then the way of "walking" is helpful to exercise the cardiopulmonary function, enhance the expansion ability of the lungs, let you breathe better while working hard, shorten the labor process and avoid dystocia.

(3) Walking helps to release stress and relieve bad mood.

Always staying at home, pregnant mothers are prone to be in a bad mood, or they are prone to stress and irritability at work every day. Then it is better to walk more and look at the scenery outside, which will help to release stress, relieve tension and anxiety, and is also of great benefit to childbirth.

However, walking during pregnancy is not "arbitrary". There are many precautions. Pregnant mothers should know that although pregnant mothers have many benefits, there are also many aspects that need attention. Not the more the better, nor do they want to leave. These aspects that need attention should be paid more attention.

Choose the right time for a walk.

Go out for a walk on sunny days to avoid rainy weather and extreme weather. At the same time, it is best to choose when the sun is not enough and the ultraviolet rays are not very strong to avoid sunburn.

For example, now is summer, pregnant mothers can choose to take a walk after meals, but because of their weak resistance during pregnancy, don't go out for a walk too late, and pay attention to avoid catching a cold.

2 take the right path.

Pregnant mothers should wear loose clothes and comfortable shoes when going out for a walk.

Don't wear tight clothes and pants, you can wear loose skirts during pregnancy, and you should also wear maternity pants with adjustable elasticity, especially in the third trimester, when the uterus is getting bigger and bigger, you should pay attention to avoid pressing the baby in the palace because the pants are too tight. Don't wear high-heeled shoes to prevent falling and injury, which will affect your baby's health. Try to wear sneakers with flat heels. Walk slowly during pregnancy, don't walk too fast, and keep breathing evenly when walking. The position of walking is very important.

Pregnant mothers are a special group. In order to avoid the abdomen being hit or falling, they should walk in places with few people, empty space and good air, avoid going to places with many people, and pay attention to avoiding vehicles.

It's expensive to walk every day.

Many pregnant mothers want to go for a walk on a whim and then go out for a walk, which may be very tired.

It is important for pregnant mothers to keep walking every day. As long as you are in good health and the weather is good, you can go out for a walk every day to enhance your physical fitness, which is also good for a natural birth. They shouldn't stop fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

Take good care after a walk.

After a pregnant mother leaves, she usually feels a little tired when she gets home, so she must have a rest before doing anything else. Moreover, pregnant mothers who sweat a lot when walking should also drink some water at rest to avoid dehydration and disorder of ion metabolism in the body.

In addition, you can also soak your feet with warm water. By promoting blood circulation in the legs, it can not only relieve leg fatigue, but also help relieve edema during pregnancy.

These situations occur when pregnant mothers walk, so they should stop and rest immediately. If a pregnant mother walks, it's best to stop and rest immediately.

(1) When uterine contraction occurs.

Generally speaking, pregnant mothers often feel obvious false contractions in the third trimester, especially after 7 months of pregnancy.

If the pregnant mother suddenly feels stiff, tight or even painful when walking, it is often contraction. At this time, she must stop and rest, and then walk properly after the contraction.

If you don't take it seriously and keep walking, it is easy to stimulate the fetus because of fatigue, and even lead to premature birth.

(2) When I feel the secretion of private parts increases.

In the third trimester of pregnancy, especially after 37 weeks of pregnancy, pregnant mothers may face delivery at any time. If you suddenly feel an increase in secretions while walking, you must stop to observe whether there is redness or water breakthrough, and seek medical attention immediately if necessary.

Generally speaking, they will give birth within 2-3 days after seeing red, and most of them will give birth within 24 hours after breaking water due to the stimulation of hormone levels.

③ When you feel tired.

In the third trimester, due to the increasing size of the uterus, the bottom of the uterus moves up and oppresses the chest organs, and pregnant mothers will have discomfort such as poor breathing. If the pregnant mother feels difficulty breathing when walking, she must stop, adjust her breathing and take a rest before walking.

Going out for a walk every day during pregnancy is really good for the pregnant mother's health, good for relieving her mood and good for the smooth delivery. It should be noted that it depends on your physical condition. Don't force yourself if you are unwell. Generally from the second trimester, it is best to insist on proper exercise every day. We should also pay attention to those aspects mentioned above that need attention, and we should not take them lightly.
