dc.description.abstract | Regular physical activity is an important component of a healthy pregnancy due to its potential
beneficial effects on both maternal and fetal health such as reduced risk of developing gestational
diabetes mellitus, pregnancy induced hypertension and preeclampsia, urinary incontinence and
reduced postpartum depression. Consequently, current guidelines for exercise during pregnancy
are now proactive and recommend both strength-conditioning exercises in addition to aerobic
exercises of moderate intensity on most, if not all, days of the week for women with normal
pregnancies.
Objectives
The overall objective was to expand our knowledge about level of exercise during pregnancy, and
to assess factors associated with regular exercise during pregnancy, and to estimate how exercise
performed at different time points during pregnancy affects reproductive outcomes such as
excessive birth weight, gestational age and Cesarean delivery. | nb_NO |
