25. Exercise tools at home

Exercise is synonymous with a healthy lifestyle, whether pregnant or not. However, to reduce side effects, be aware of safe exercises (e.g., kegel, yoga, walking) and advice on low-impact tools. 

According to the American Pregnancy Association, pelvic floor exercises, like Kegels, are particularly recommended to control your muscles during labor and delivery. Even after childbirth, you can work on these exercises to promote perineal healing and improve pelvic floor muscles effectively. In fact, many women find it challenging to do Kegels at the right position and frequency. That’s also why Lola & Lykke created Bodyotics Deluxe Kegel Weighted Exercise Balls. These balls are tailored to offer excellent performance with only 15 minutes per day. In addition, mothers can freely use them for their daily fitness without technical skills.
