The pelvic floor muscles have to work a lot during pregnancy, as these are the muscles which support the weight of the baby. Developing strong pelvic floor muscles through Pilates can help to prevent the not-so-nice experience of urinary incontinence during and after pregnancy.
Regular Pilates practice also helps your body to recover and get back into shape after pregnancy. By keeping the tummy muscles strong throughout pregnancy women find they regain their former strength more quickly after the baby is born.
