Nutrition and Lifestyle News: Yoga During Pregnancy Can Benefit Mom, Baby
Practicing yoga while pregnant can help mothers-to-be relax but, better than that, it may also reduce complications of childbirth and improve the birth weight of babies, according to results of a new study from India. A team of researchers recruited 169 pregnant women trained in yoga and 166 other expectant women who got routine prenatal care and served as controls. The group that did yoga spent an hour a day doing various loosening exercises and practicing yoga postures, relaxation, deep breathing exercises and meditation. The yoga group had only 14 percent premature deliveries compared to 29 percent in the control group; women in the yoga group also had lower rates of pregnancy-related high blood pressure. Yoga may improve pregnancy outcome by increasing blood flow to the placenta, lowering transfer of maternal stress hormones and delaying the signals that trigger the onset of labor. The study was reported in the April 2005 issue of the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. As long as women have no medical or obstetric complications, daily exercise is recommended during pregnancy – just don’t get overheated and make sure you’re well hydrated. Pregnant women should stop exercising if they become dizzy or develop a headache, chest pain or pain or swelling in the calves.
