Hello Hivers 💓
Wishing you from my heart center to be very well today I want to share some yoga asanas (postures) for pregnant women that for those beautiful moms-to-be are going to help them a lot for back pain, hips, for when we are swollen, also they will continue or start to be active, maintain flexibility, tone up, relax.
This post is specially dedicated with much love for the beautiful @graciadegenios who is in the sweet expectation of her baby and asked me postures for pregnant women, for you and your baby I send much light and unconditional love 🙌😘.

These postures can be done during the whole pregnancy no matter the size of the belly the most important thing is to listen to our body not forcing it, always connect with the breath, let us flow and enjoy the moment that we give ourselves and our baby will also enjoy the practice 😉
And I also want to remind you that the practice does not replace medical treatments, it is always advisable to consult with your gynecologist for any discomfort or if your pregnancy is somehow risky, as I mentioned before listen to your bodies and treat it with love and patience 💓.
On the other hand it should be noted that when we are in this beautiful stage of pregnancy is not recommended to perform some positions such as twisting, or those where they must be face down and put pressure on the belly, the positions of inversion (head down) are not highly recommended because of the amniotic fluid although so far I have not read any clinical study regarding the latter but as I mentioned always consult with your gynecologist.
However, there are others that can be done during the whole pregnancy such as these three that I will share with you in the following days we will continue with more postures for the beautiful women who are in that sweet waiting period
1._ Cat and cow posture
leaning on 4 points we place our arms straight supporting our hands on the floor aligned with the shoulders, knees at hip level, inhale and raise our head and tail towards the ceiling or the sky if you are outdoors, when exhaling we lower our head and tail inward looking towards the navel and arching our back as much as possible.
And so we do several repetitions as we go up we inhale and stretch upwards like a cow and as we exhale we bend and arch our back like a cat without bending our arms.
2._ Child's pose
Supported on the four points we will go backwards until we support the buttocks on the heels and leave the arms stretched forward, we support the forehead on the floor if your belly is very big you can place a cushion to support the forehead, and we perform there about 10 breaths inhaling and exhaling calmly through the nose, a variant can keep your hands open on the floor or support the tips of the fingers to achieve a greater stretching of the back.
3._Half bridge posture
We carefully take our side little by little until we are on our back, we bend our legs bringing our heels close to our buttocks and our arms stretched to the sides, the neck should be relaxed leaning on the floor, we inhale and when we exhale we raise our pelvis as much as we can towards the sky, if it is easier for you interlace your hands under the buttocks and the shoulder blades together as much as possible if you find it difficult just let your arms outstretched from side to side with palms down, keep the position several breaths inhaling and exhaling calmly through the nose.
I say goodbye appreciated Hivers until a next post, thank you for stopping in this space full of love for you, I send you a big hug of light 💖.
