As a doula, I encourage women to stay active during their pregnancy because it helps with labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery. Many women are able to sustain a workout routine that is similar to their pre-pregnancy exercise but with modifications to protect their baby, and usually decreased activity as their pregnancy continues. While some of the pictures may seem extreme, if their care provider (OB or midwife) is comfortable with their baby’s development and weight gain in the womb, then I don’t see what the problem is.
