I just had my baby and doing Kegels daily really helped with my labor. Start slow, just squeeze your pelvic muscles like you are holding urine, and release.

I used a pelvic exercise tracker app! Doing 10-15 Kegels a day is very easy and keeps your muscles strong. Just keep a reminder on your phone.

Do gentle butterfly stretches and squat with support, dear. Don't push yourself too hard, your body is already doing a lot of work.

I only started pelvic tilts and prenatal yoga after my doctor gave me a strict go-ahead. Keep it light, and stop immediately if you feel tired.

I did Kegels and gentle pelvic tilts, which also helped keep my activity levels up for my sugar control. Just check with your doctor before starting any exercises.

Pelvic floor exercises like Kegels and butterfly stretches are great. But please get your gynac's clearance first, especially if you have any complications.
