Pregnancy: 6 exercises to relax you when you travel!

The holidays are approaching… and there’s the long -a time – travel. When the body is “locked” inside a car or…
plane, numb and starts to hurt, especially if you are pregnant. To help me feel as comfortable as possible, wear loose-fitting clothes that you feel really comfortable. In addition, wear in the morning a pair of stockings to keep the feet swell (or a pantyhose restraint), especially if you have to go your pregnancy and you are going to travel by plane.
Also be sure to choose the right shoes. No high heels (but totally straight) and not too narrow. The best are shoes quite soft so the foot can really relax and you can move the toes.
You will travel by car? Don’t forget to make frequent stops (every 2 hours) to take air, and walk, stretch your legs. If you are on the train or on the plane, to get up at least every hour to ξεμουδιάζουν the knees by doing a few walks up and down the hallway for 10 minutes. If you feel a pull in a muscle, do the following exercises.
