#DidYouKnow that EXERCISE reduces the chance of having a caesarean by 75%!!! ???? This is my gal @hannah_olives and I at #CoreTraining which I've been doing for the past 6yrs ???? Pregnancy is definitely not the time to try and hit new fitness goals but rather about maintenance! ???? if your body was used to an exercise prior to pregnancy then it will be safe to carry on (adjusting intensity accordingly) as long as your body says it's still okay and your doctor approves ???? We were blessed with amazing bodies! It will tell us when we need to slow down (or stop) ?? We just have to be sensitive and listen to it ???????????????? Cheers to the active mommas out there! ???????? #ActiveBuntis #FitPreggo #FitPregnancy #GoodVibesLang #BawalAngNegaSaBuntis #Core #NothingNewToBabyA #BabyA #2ndTrimester #HappyLang #EmbraceTheSocks @vamossocks http://www.kidspot.co.nz/article+7352+116+Exercise-reduces-C-sections.htm
