During pregnancy, a large number of changes occur in the female body, which allows the development of the future child and his subsequent birth. The effect of these changes is mainly on the torso, pelvic floor, lower limb and other body segments and affects walking, balance, pain and even the risk of falling. Some of these changes, according to previous studies, persist in the postpartum period. The aim of the project is to analyze the possible persisting influence of pregnancy on walking of fresh mothers.
