Supervised group exercise did not improve psychological well-being for women with or at high risk of depression at 29-34 weeks of gestation. Eight weeks postpartum the intervention group reported significantly higher psychological well-being than the control group. Based on our results, supervised exercise in groups is a safe complementary course of treatment alongside the existing antenatal care.
