During sleeping and some stretches I sometimes lift my hips to adjust pillow. I am in second trimester and suddenly wondered if this position is okay. Anyone else doing this?
I'd say please ask ur doctor first specially as belly grows. In my pregnancy I was told to avoid lying flat on back for long later on. Better to get a personalised okay than guess.
It really depends what kind of lifting u mean and which trimester. Prenatal-safe gentle moves are usually fine with doctor approval. Doctor's advice is genuinely the safest call here.
Light hip movements were fine for me early on, but dont strain or hold ur breath. Avoid anything that hurts. And once the bump is big, get ur gynac's go ahead for positions.
Gentle hip lifts (like a small bridge) are often okay in early-mid pregnancy if ur doctor allows. But it depends on ur trimester and how ur pregnancy is going. I always checked with my gynac before any exercise.
