Only 41% of pregnant women engaged in moderate physical activities, like walking each day for less than 30 minutes.
Around 82% of participants reported reducing their activity during pregnancy, largely due to tiredness and fear of miscarriage.
Pregnant women cited time constraints, with 20% indicating lack of time as a barrier to physical activity.
Psychological issues such as anxiety and poor sleep were more prevalent among those less active during pregnancy.
