To deal with such stress, it is advisable for pregnant women to join fitness sessions meant for them. In such sessions, expectant mothers are made to do stress relieving exercises, which also help to strengthen their bones and muscles for a smooth delivery.

So whatever you do, make sure you are doing it after consulting with your doctor.
