The paper presents recommendations for physical activity for pregnant women, which were adopted by members of the extended professional board of the Ministry of Health for gynecology and the extended professional board of the Ministry of Health for physiotherapy in 2014. Recommendations were also published in 2015 in the Journal of Slovene Medical Society. Properly selected and prescribed physical activity during pregnancy has a favorable effect on the health of pregnant women and the fetus, and is excellent preparation for childbirth. It is recommended that pregnant women should be moderately physically active every day of the week for at least 30 minutes. Physical activity of pregnant women should follow the general principles of physical activity taking into account the physiological and anatomical characteristics of pregnant women and their individual characteristics. Appropriate forms of physical activity for pregnant women are walking and jogging, swimming and aquatic exercise, cycling, pilates and yoga, aerobics, fitness and cross-country skiing. Certain forms of physical activity need special adjustments (alpine skiing, ice skating and rollerblading, racket sports, team ball games, horseback riding and scuba diving). Persons running exercise for women during pregnancy, as well as physically active pregnant women themselves should be aware of the absolute and relative contraindications for physical activity during pregnancy and the characters in which it is necessary to immediately stop the physical activity.
