We know that exercise during pregnancy it can be really overwhelming and hard to know what to do and what not to do. In this blog we’ll cover 6 important things you need to know about exercising during pregnancy.

I’m writing this blog from my swiss ball at 39 weeks pregnant! I’ve had so many people asking if I’m still working out in these last few weeks - the answer to that is yes! I thought it might be a good idea to share some tips to help you keep moving too.

Ren’s finally shared her exciting news! Another baby is on the way for the She Moves team. Ren is now well into her second trimester but wanted to go back and share the realities of the first trimester and her tips for managing this time and staying active… or trying to!

We know that every pregnancy is different and we know that fitness levels vary person to person this is why we offer so much variety in this space! At She Moves there is something appropriate for every pregnant Mum. Check out all our classes in this blog and what ones might be best for you.

I want to tell you that each time I did exercise ‘it made me feel better’ but honestly it didn’t… not at the start anyway. At the start I would just walk on the treadmill and cry. But walking on the treadmill balling my eyes out was a start and eventually it did begin to help, it did start to give me both the physical and emotional benefits.

We sat down with She Moves head trainer Julia to chat all things pregnancy and staying active while doing the amazing job of growing a human!

As our babe grows our posture and the alignment of our musculoskeletal system (bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments) changes to create room for baby. By trimester 2 we are generally standing, sitting and sleeping in different positions and we tend to adopt a curve in our back.
