The mother of two urged pregnant mothers to do exercises under the guidance and advice of a doctor saying the benefits are immense.

"If you are paged and you feel you can do this, of course with permission from your doc, please do it. You'll love the outcome. Thanks to Stephanie for preaching this to us. I can now confirm that indeed working out while paged comes with so many health benefits, sana sana hapo kwa (more so in) faster recovery," Celestine advised.

Some of the benefits of working out during pregnancy include the reduction of backaches, constipation, bloating, as well as swelling which happens mostly on the feet and hands.
