Gymnastics for pregnant women: benefit or harm?
As it appeared, future mums intensively going in for sports more than seven hours a week at earlier stages of pregnancy (till 18 weeks) run 3,5 times higher risk of miscarriage, than women who did not go in for sports at all.  Â
To tell the truth, at later stages (after 18 weeks) miscarriage for this reason, according to doctors, is practically excluded. Â
Future mums must not be engaged in any occupations which are accompanied by shaking of a body, vibration, weight-lifting, risk of falling or blows. These include mountain climbing, equestrian sport, diving, all kinds of wrestling, team sports, mountain skiing.
