Prenatal Yoga First Trimester | Best Daily Stretches For Pregnancy

Welcome to Week 8 of your 40‑Week Prenatal Yoga Journey! At this early stage (around 8 weeks pregnant), your body is already shifting — hormones transitioning, energy levels fluctuating, and emotions feeling deep. This gentle yoga flow will help you slow down, fuel your body, and nurture your emotions. Leave everything on your mat today.

Why Join This Week’s Flow:
• Supports early fatigue relief + gentle bloating reduction
• Releases hip, low back, and upper body tension
• Enhances mind-body connection for both you and your baby
• Builds early leg and pelvic strength & flexibility for a safe labor and delivery

🌿 What’s Inside the Flow

• Gentle centering breathwork on your knees
• Baby Camel + Child’s Pose variations to expand your chest and side ribs
• Cat/Cow + Down Dog with pedaling feet for circulation and digestive support
• Standing series with Warrior II, Triangle, and Malasana for hip + leg strength
• Half Splits, Pigeon Pose folds, and wide-leg seated stretches for safe hamstring + hip opening
• Restorative closing with Bound Angle Pose, Wide-Leg Seated Forward Fold, and Side-Lying Savasana to relax and connect with baby

Every movement is chosen to be first trimester–friendly, with modifications as needed.
