"A practical, expert-led, straight-talking guide to exercising during pregnancy and post-birth. Staying active during pregnancy and the postpartum period has vast physical and mental health benefits, but it's also a subject that's fraught with fear, myths, and misinformation. We're told by doctors to exercise, but we're not given the tools with which to do so. Enter: The Bump Plan, by personal trainer, pre-and-postnatal exercise specialist and mother of two, Hollie Grant. With illustrated trimester-by-trimester plans on what you can safely do at each stage, guidance about the physical shifts you can expect, information on how to move and get back to doing the things you love after your baby has arrived, and nutrition and pelvic health advice, there is no better companion to see you through this exciting but daunting time"--Publisher's description.
