Yoga: a simple workout for pregnant women

Want to relieve the pain you are experiencing, mothers? Then yoga pose is for you.

For Relieving Belly Weight: Cat-Cow Pose

Marjaryasana-Bitilasana or the Cat-Cow pose

 

As with the seated forward bend, anything that takes pressure off your belly is going to feel great. Don’t worry about pushing too far into a deep back bend in this variation, just focus on moving easily with your breath.

Start on all fours. Inhale and look up, allowing back to bend naturally (without placing emphasis on the low spine). As you exhale, round spine, tuck rear, and curl inward, looking down and toward navel. Continue to move through both poses as you inhale and exhale.
