After 5 months of pregnancy, that is, the second trimester, the pregnant woman's stomach began to get bigger and the fetus gradually grew and developed. Proper exercise during pregnancy is good for pregnant women's health and fetal development, so what exercise can pregnant women do in 5 months? Can you do strenuous exercise? Although the fetal position in the second trimester is relatively stable, pregnant women should not do some strenuous exercise, because strenuous exercise can easily lead to signs of miscarriage in pregnant women and endanger the life and health of the fetus. Pregnant women can do some walking, yoga, sitting cross-legged and so on for five months, and do some moderate exercise.

Let's talk about walking first. Walking is a good exercise, especially suitable for pregnant women in the second trimester. Because there is no big movement when walking, walking slowly is very suitable for pregnant women who are pregnant for 5 months. In fact, walking is a good exercise throughout pregnancy. Take a walk for half an hour every day, don't make yourself too tired. Especially in the third trimester, if you feel tight or painful during walking, you must stop and walk with someone.

Sitting cross-legged is a sport that can be played at home. You can put your hands on your knees after getting up every day or before going to bed, then press your knees down hard and practice for 2~3 minutes each time. This action is not difficult, and it is particularly convenient. Do it by the way before getting up or going to bed. Cross-legged sitting exercises can relax waist joints by stretching muscles, which can make pregnant women less prone to low back pain during pregnancy.

Pregnant women can also do some yoga exercises, but yoga is a very complicated exercise. Therefore, when pregnant women do yoga, they must pay attention to doing some simple and gentle yoga, and don't do that kind of difficult yoga, so as not to hurt their bodies. Doing some simple stretching exercises can keep the flexibility of pregnant women's body, increase the flexibility of the body, and stretch the pelvis, which is conducive to keeping pregnant women in shape during pregnancy.

In short, as long as pregnant women exercise, they should try to avoid strenuous exercise and choose simple and gentle exercise.
