Bed Rest Exercises

Показать описание
Being on bed rest while you are pregnant does not mean you should lie still. Stretching and toning movements help you stay strong while your baby grows. We'll show you safe, gentle ways to maintain and increase upper body strength. Breathe in and out as you exercise. Breath holding can tighten abdominal muscles and stress your uterus. This is what you are trying to avoid by being on bed rest. So --remember to breathe in and out.

Check with your doctor or nurse midwife before you do these exercises. Stop right away if you have any of these symptoms:
• Pain or discomfort
• Contractions -- even small ones
• Bleeding from your vagina
• Shortness of breath
• Dizziness
• Headache
• Chest pains
• Muscle weakness
• Calf pain or swelling
• Contractions that seem to have a pattern (preterm labor)
• Your baby does not move around as much as before
• Clear fluid leaking from your vagina (Your water may have broken.)
