When you become pregnant, your whole focus shifts to that tiny life inside of you. Exercising properly, eating right and getting plenty of rest all take center stage when you become pregnant. But what is proper exercise when you are pregnant? What will be safe for you and your baby?
Doing yoga during pregnancy is one of the best ways to keep yourself fit and healthy. But you need to make sure that you do it right so that you are keeping yourself and your baby safe. Some important things to keep in mind:
- Do not push yourself. While you are pregnant is not the time to be pushing your body to its limits. Doing yoga during pregnancy should be uplifting and relaxing, not a strenuous workout.
- Pay attention to how you feel. Being in tune with yourself and your body while you are pregnant is important. When you are doing yoga during pregnancy, be sure to understand what your body is telling you and respect what your body is telling you.
- Do only what feels comfortable for you. If a pose starts causing you discomfort, stop doing that pose and take a break. Signs of discomfort while you are doing yoga during pregnancy are signs that you need to listen to in order to keep you and your baby safe.

Doing yoga during pregnancy is a great way to stay, fit, healthy and active. Downward facing dog is a great position to do while you are pregnant. It is a great way to stretch out those sore and tired muscles during pregnancy. Another great one is child’s pose, although this one can get a bit difficult as your belly gets bigger. The combination of stretching a relaxation pose in this one makes it an ideal pose for yoga during pregnancy in my mind.
But the one I like the best is the deep squat with kegel exercises. I did kegel exercises throughout my pregnancy and I really think that helped when I was in the delivery room. When you are doing yoga during pregnancy, the deep squat is great for leg strength and if you are planning on having a natural birth, could very well be a position that you should get used to. This is considered the birthing posture in many parts of the world and is reported to shorten the birth canal by 20%. Maybe something to keep in mind even if you are not planning on having a natural childbirth!

In order to keep both you and your baby safe, it is important to perform yoga during pregnancy in the right way. Some of the things you should avoid include:
- Any positions that have you laying on your back for more than a few minutes. Once you reach your second and third trimester, avoid laying on your back during yoga positions.
- Yoga during pregnancy should also not include any movements or positions that stretch your abdominal muscles very much.
- Hot yoga classes (doing yoga in a room heated to 90 degrees or more) should also be avoided.
There are many benefits of doing yoga during pregnancy, just be sure to listen to your body and avoid things that could cause problems for you or your baby. A good prenatal yoga DVD will guide you through positions that are safe and appropriate for where you are in your pregnancy.
