Exercise Routine for Second Trimester 14 – 30 Weeks
February 7, 2009
The second trimester is when you get to sit back and get a break. You worried in the first trimester to make sure that you were gaining enough weight and the baby was healthy. You know that in the third trimester you are going to get bigger and more uncomfortable. Now is the time to enjoy.
This is the time when you get to see the baby’s fingers and toes and the baby will start to move around. When cleaning the house or just going for a walk, you may find yourself rubbing your belly and singing and talking to the baby. When you find that your back starts to cramp and your feet are aching, sit back.
Have your hubby give you a back massage or rub your feet. This can help to relieve a lot of tension and make you feel like a brand new person. Exercises during this period are also very helpful to you and the baby as well
A few of the exercises that you can try are the supported bridge, spiral twist, crossover twist, the wave, the rocking cradle and the balancing posture. When doing any of these exercises it is important to make sure that you and your belly are supported.
Breathing properly is also very important when you are exercising during your pregnancy. Not only will this benefit the baby by getting fresh, clean oxygen, but you will also benefit by relaxing your body and your muscles. The exercises that you can do during your second trimester will also be a great benefit during this time.
By exercising, your body is getting the opportunity to stretch out those tense and tired muscles. Not only will your body appreciate it but the baby will be thankful as well. You and baby will feel much more relaxed and happy. This is important since pregnancy can be such a trying and stressful time on occasion.
All you have to remember is that breathing properly and the right type of exercise will help to get you through the second trimester with a breeze.
