Pregnancy brings significant physical, mental, and emotional changes, often requiring a shift in how you move. If an active lifestyle has always mattered to you, slowing down can feel challenging. Still, staying active while being pregnant supports your health, prepares your body for birth, and helps you stay connected to yourself and your baby. From hiking to yoga, there are safe ways to keep moving and adapt your routine as your pregnancy progresses.

Linda and Renwe met, they think, around 2002; "Maybe you could say it's like 19 years," says Linda. They struggle to pin down exactly how they met, but when two people have been so close for so long, it's easy to see why it's difficult to picture their lives apart.

Since their first date, they have been partners in every sense of the word. "We work together. We are a great team. We are best friends, we are parents, we are lovers," says Linda, who puts the success of their relationship down to the balance of their personalities – her self-confessed "hectic" nature tempered by Renwe's calm and quiet character.
