I used to sit in vajrasana after meals regularly and found it really helped my digestion. Now im 4 months pregnant and not sure if its still ok to do with the growing belly. Anyone continued this pose during pregnancy?
My mother always sat in vajrasana after food and suggested it to me too. I did it gently for short time. Still, since you are pregnant, just confirm once with your doctor, they will tell what suits your stage.
It's one of the gentler poses and many do it in early pregnancy for digestion, but every body and stage is different. Please get a yes from your gynac or a trained prenatal yoga instructor before doing it. Safety first.
I am into gentle yoga and vajrasana felt fine for digestion in my first trimester. But I always say, for pregnancy run any pose past your doctor first. If you feel pain or discomfort, stop immediately.
Vajrasana after meals helped my digestion a lot, but I did it only for short time and as my prenatal yoga teacher guided. In later months it can get uncomfortable with the belly. Definitely check with your doctor before continuing any asana.
I sat in vajrasana for a few minutes after dinner and it eased my heaviness. Kept it short and stopped when belly grew big. Listen to your body, if anything feels off just get up. And clear it with your doctor.
