As long as your doctor has given you the green light to stay physically active during pregnancy, yoga is an ideal activity for all expectant moms. It’s gentle and designed for pregnancy, which means it helps prepare you for the mental aspects of childbirth (and beyond). Research suggests that prenatal yoga is safe and can have many benefits for pregnant women and their babies. Prenatal yoga classes help prepare you for the birthing process and allow you to enjoy the company of other pregnant women. This fosters a valuable sense of community.
