HEALTHY PREGNANCY

Now that you’re pregnant, you are about to embark on one of the most intense and emotional adventures that a woman experiences in life: the ability to create life.  Pregnancy and birth bring about a tremendous series of changes on as much a physical level as on an emotional one.  It’s important to be prepared and accept it as a natural part of this process of giving birth.

    Exercise is very beneficial for our health, especially because of the sedentary lifestyle common to most of us and that causes problems such as obesity and backaches due to poor posture when sitting at the office, amongst other things.

    For many of us, taking time off work during pregnancy is not an option. Sometimes you work until the last possible minute in your pregnancy, to later be able to spend as much time as you can with your baby.
