“…North Africa, too, has revealed that an African continent impedes women's complete enjoyment of political, social, economic and legal rights even though there have been encouraging developments over recent years. (Bilgin & Esencan, 2020). Despite a number of positive developments brought about by SAPs, poverty remains widespread in the East African countries.…”

It is known that physical activity (PA) in pregnancy is beneficial for both women and fetal health. For the optimal exercise prescription, healthcare professionals who are interested in obstetrics-gynecology should evaluate women carefully before making any exercise recommendations during pregnancy. If there aren't any contraindications, pregnant women should be encouraged to regular physical activity. This narrative review aimed to determine PA during pregnancy in Turkey. It was performed a literature search in the databases. A total of 29 original articles on PA during pregnancy in Turkey were included in this present study. Of these, 18 studies were considered for analysis. Two studies assessed PA levels in pregnancy objective/direct methods such as PA monitors and pedometers, and non-objective/indirect methods were used in all 18 studies. Regarding exercise types, the most preferred exercises during pregnancy were walking, breathing exercises, strengthening exercises, and stretching neck muscles. This narrative review revealed that the level of PA participation and the frequency of regular exercise during pregnancy in Turkey is low. More studies are needed to examine PA participation from various contexts during pregnancy in Turkey to guide interventions for improving maternal health.
