EXERCISE DURING PREGNANCY CURBS DIABETES RISK

Researchers have found that women who engage in moderate physical activity during pregnancy are less likely to have gestational diabetes, and the exercise also helps to reduce maternal weight gain.

"Exercise is not something to be feared during pregnancy - the moderate levels of exercise used in these studies had significantly positive effects on health and were found to be safe for both mother and baby," said lead author of the study Gema Sanabria-Martinez from Virgen de la Luz Hospital in Spain.

Gestational diabetes is one of the most frequent complications of pregnancy. It is associated with an increased risk of serious disorders such as hypertension, preterm birth, and with induced or caesarean birth.

It can have long term effects on the mother including long term impaired glucose tolerance and Type-2 diabetes.

The children of mothers with gestational diabetes are more likely to become overweight or obese and have a higher risk of developing diabetes themselves.

Gaining more weight than is recommended during pregnancy carries similar risks, and these women are also less likely to lose the excess weight after the baby is born.

In this study, analysis of 13 trials, involving more than 2,800 women, found that exercise reduced the risk of gestational diabetes by more than 30 percent - for women who exercised throughout pregnancy this was even greater (36 percent).

This effect was strongest for women who combined toning, strength, flexibility and aerobic exercise.

Exercise was also helpful in reducing excessive weight gain -- those who exercised were on average a kilogram lighter.

This held true for the weight gain even if the exercise programme was started in the second trimester of pregnancy.

The study was published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

Speaking after she was listed in Cosmo’s Internet's Most Fascinating list, Amber Rose said she wasn't really interested in sex, saying she was more concerned about her son and work. She also said most guys were scared of her, or too busy flashing their cash.

“I don’t even want to have sex. I really don't! I'm just so focused on my son and my work and everything that I'm trying to do. I just don't even wanna be bothered."

MY HUSBAND KILLED OUR SON - HEARTBROKEN MOTHER WRITES

Heartbreaking story told my a mother (Daniel at 2years old and Jeremy a newborn). 

My ex-husband and I got married because I was pregnant. It was a stupid reason to get married, I know, but we were 23 and there was pressure from parents—basically from everyone – so we went ahead with it. John and I had been dating for about a year, and in February 2000, we were husband and wife.

My pregnancy was a tough one. I was put on bed rest halfway through, and at about 33 weeks I felt something that I thought was my water breaking. The doctors said everything was fine, but when I went to an appointment a couple weeks later, they rushed me to be induced because I had no fluid left. I was just past 35 weeks when I had Jeremy, but he’d gone for two weeks with very little fluid, so it was as if he was delivered at 33 weeks.

103 YEAR OLD IDENTICAL TWINS DIE WITHIN WEEKS OF EACH OTHER

After living most of their lives together, Gleyns Thomas and Florence Davies, reportedly the world's oldest twin sisters, passed away within weeks of each other.

Thomas died on April 23, according to The Telegraph, and her heartbroken sister passed away less than a month later on May 20.

The twins were born in 1911 in Wales.

For most of their lives, they were nearly inseparable, even sharing a room until one of them got married. In their final days, the sisters were living at the Abermill Care Home in Caerphilly, Wales in adjoining rooms.

The sisters were thought to be the oldest living twins in the UK and perhaps even the world, though Guinness World Records say the record for oldest female living twins has been unassigned since July 2014.

They are survived by a total of five children, 12 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren. Relatives attributed the sisters' longevity to a simple life enjoyed within a tight-knit family and community.
