Study: New moms may let their health slip

April 11, 2011

New parents, particularly mothers, devote so much time and energy to their children that they often fail to adequately look after their own health, a new study in the journal Pediatrics suggests. The study, which followed about 1,500 high school students into their mid-20s, found that those who became parents got far less exercise than their childless peers. (CNN)
