Pregnancy Exercise- Listen To Your Body

You’re pregnant, so now more than ever you need to listen to your body.  If you’re hungry, don’t deprive yourself, EAT, just chose foods that will nourish you AND your baby.  One of my personal favorites was a smoothie I made from orange juice (note: folate found in oranges is good for baby development), half a frozen banana, and a few frozen strawberries.  Blend it up…and YUM!!!

Also, make sure you get the rest your body wants and needs.  In the 3rd trimester you’re likely to feel more fatigue because you’re body is preparing to have a baby!  Take advantage of catnaps.  When you listen to your body you will feel better both mentally and physically.
