Excersing during pregnancy can help reduce the size of a child. And it will not harm the development in anyway. This can help decrease the amount of obese children that are born. Just by mothers doing daily exercise, their child will be born with a lesser weight than if the mother did not exercise.
Exercising late in a pregnancy will do nothing for the mother, but will still help the offspring. I think this was a pretty neat article. It's interesting to find out so many new things a women can do to make sure their baby is healthy before it's even born!
