The 3rd trimester of pregnancy is an exciting time, anticipating the birth of the baby. The changes in woman’s body are big and one is starting to feel more inert. That is why a great care should be taken when changing positions, i.e. getting up from lying to standing or vice versa. Also, pay special attention to any aches and pains in the pubic or sacral area; they may be the signs of SPD (symphisis pubis disorder) which can be significantly made better by certain yoga exercises. However, some movements can make it much worse, so make sure that you choose an experienced ante-natal yoga teacher.
As for me, I am enjoying my 29th week of pregnancy holidaying in Sardinia with my family and friends. I am practising yoga daily and also doing a lot of swimming to build up the stamina for labour.
Yours,
Petra
