This assessment of the latest research into the influence of exercise on the fetus in utero examines a range of evidence suggesting that mothers-to-be who take regular exercise are doing their future children a big biological and physiological favor.

Exercise during pregnancy maintains, and in some cases improves, maternal fitness and physical capacity, significantly decreases risk of developing preeclampsia, hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, decreases weight gain, and improves attitude and mental state. Placental adaptations have been discovered recently that indicate an increase in blood flow and nourishment to the fetus. This new SpringerBrief in Physiology explores the newest research findings on how exercise influences the fetus in utero and beyond. Physiology of Prenatal Exercise and Fetal Development reviews the current findings of how maternal exercise throughout gestation influences fetal development of key organ systems, and will also encompass the relationship between maternal activity level and fetal, birth, and neonatal effects. This information will help researchers and scientists better understand the physiological effects of exercise during pregnancy on offspring development.
From the reviews:
“This short book details the impact of maternal exercise on the developing baby. The purpose is to show the potential benefits and the absence of harm of expectant mothers engaging in light exercise in the perinatal period. This is a worthwhile objective and the author does a good job of achieving it. ... There are few if any books detailing the impact of exercise in pregnancy, and this book has great potential.” (Anthony Shanks, Doody’s Review Service, July, 2012)
