Weekly Pregnancy/Baby Update
As you come to the end of the 4th trimester, check back in with your hormonal/emotional state. Especially if breastfeeding, women’s hormones continue to change throughout many months postpartum.
Yoga Posture
Bird dog – Dandayamana Bharmanasana
Time to add some movement! Find your table top position. Engage and stabilize your core. Extend one arm out in front, and opposite leg behind you. Inhale here, and exhale as you pull the arm and leg together near your belly. Repeat 5 times each side
Recommended Yoga Class
This flow is short, easy (all on our mat, no standing postures), and a good introduction back into your practice after having been postpartum for about 2 months! Welcome back! This class is made for during pregnancy, but is appropriate for postpartum as well. (You may adapt any of my prenatal yoga classes into postpartum classes, and stay tuned for postpartum classes!).
*I am constantly updating recommended classes as I add more yoga classes to my YouTube library! Check back often for updates!
**Every body, woman, practice, and pregnancy is different. If the suggested class for this week does not suit you this week for any reason, please feel free to look for a different one on my YouTube channel. Trust your body and listen to your birth team!
