What are the precautions for pregnant women to swim?

1. Who is suitable? Swimming exercise for expectant mothers is suitable for them who usually swim before. If you have no swimming habit before pregnancy, don't do this exercise deliberately.

2. When is the suitable time? You should swim when the contractions are not very strong. This time is generally between 10 am and 2 pm. You can start swimming from the 15th week of pregnancy.

3. What kind of posture is suitable? It is not suitable to choose vigorous swimming postures during pregnancy, breaststroke and backstroke are more suitable postures.

4. What kind of swimming pool is suitable? The water temperature needs to be kept at about 30 degrees. If the water temperature is too cold, lower than 28 degrees Celsius, it will stimulate uterine contractions, which may cause premature birth or miscarriage; if the water temperature is too high, over 32 degrees Celsius, it is easy to cause fatigue. The pool water needs to be strictly disinfected so that mamas can avoid gynecological inflammation caused by bacteria.
