Want an easier birth? Exercise during pregnancy does more than keep you “in shape” — it can directly impact labor length, pain levels, interventions, and recovery. In this video, we break down how exercise during pregnancy helps labor and what actually makes a difference.

Most women are never told that staying active during pregnancy can help shorten labor, reduce the need for interventions, improve baby positioning, and increase stamina for contractions and pushing. Even gentle, consistent exercise can support your body hormonally and physically for birth.

In this video, Rachel (mom of 8) and Heather (family nurse practitioner and midwife) from the Mighty Mama Movement explain:

How exercise during pregnancy affects labor and delivery
Which pregnancy exercises are safe and which to avoid
Why movement supports better contractions, endurance, and recovery
How exercise helps reduce common pregnancy and birth complications
Myths about pregnancy exercise that can actually make labor harder
How to stay active safely in all trimesters, even if you were not active before pregnancy

We cover walking, swimming, prenatal yoga, strength training, pelvic floor work, and other safe ways to move during pregnancy, plus what types of exercise can increase strain, fatigue, or risk when you are expecting.

If you are pregnant and wondering:

Is exercise safe during pregnancy?
What exercises help labor?
Can exercise make birth easier or less painful?
What should I avoid when exercising while pregnant?

This video will help you understand how to move in a way that supports your body — not stresses it — so you are better prepared for labor and recovery.
