怀孕的妇女应该通过锻炼远离忧郁
2005年3月8日报道，现在很多研究都集中在为怀孕的母亲生产健康的宝贝上，很少有关注怀孕的母亲的身心变化和健康问题。而最近出版的一份杂志则报道了怀孕的母亲的身心变化以及合适的锻炼能保证怀孕的母亲的健康。
研究人员对多种族的妇女进行了研究, 发现怀孕过程中妇女在在健康方面的重要改变, 包括日常生活能力的下降和日益增长的情绪忧郁, 一些妇女能在产后改善。而另一些则一直持续道产后。
贫穷的怀孕妇女的健康情况较差，文章说 " 在社经地位低的和少数种族的妇女之中忧郁症更是常见 " 。
美国妇产科学会建议锻炼是怀孕妇女保持健康的有效方式，怀孕妇女应每天锻炼30分钟，至少是一星期几天。
"这些研究结果能用来指导妊娠期的妇女、他们的家人以及公共政策",领导这项研究的Jennifer Haas博士说。 超过 90% 的妊娠期的妇女持续工作到分娩前的那个月， 其中的 60% 在分娩后的一年内工作,而其中的 2/3在三个月内就工作了。 这项研究的数据可能对准母亲的公共政策比如工作休假产生影响。
尽管这项研究显示锻炼对怀孕妇女的健康有益，但是还不能揭示他们之间关联的原因。

Pregnant Women Should Exercise To Keep Depression Away
March 8, 2005 ?While much research focuses on healthy babies for pregnant mothers, little has been published about the physical and emotional health and changes that the mothers go through themselves. A study in a recent issue of the Journal of General Internal Medicine presents data that characterizes these changes and highlights exercise as an effective means for preventing decline in physical function and emotional health for pregnant women.
The study was conducted on a group of multi-ethnic women, during and immediately after pregnancy. Over the course of their pregnancy, researchers observed significant changes in health, including decline in the ability to perform daily functions and increased signs of depression, both of which improved during the postpartum period. However for some, these health problems can also extend into postpartum.
Women who reported insufficient money for food and housing, and lack of exercise, were most associated with poor health, before, after and during pregnancy. The article states that "depression is more common among disadvantaged and minority women."
Exercise is recommended and seen as an effective way to counter or prevent these changes. The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology endorses this and suggests 30 minutes of moderate exercise for pregnant women on most, if not all, days of the week.
"These results can be used to guide the expectations of women, their providers and policies around functional status during pregnancy," states lead researcher, Dr. Jennifer Haas. Statistics show that over 90% of women in the work force continue to work up to the month before delivery. Of the 60% of women who return to work in the year after delivery, two thirds return to work within three months. The data from the study could ultimately affect public policies such as work leave for mothers-to-be.
While the association between exercise and significant health benefits for pregnant women is shown here, the relationship has not yet been established as causal.
