Pregnancy Stretching Exercises TO PREPARE FOR LABOR & BIRTH

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Initially I was paying $34+ monthly for programs when there was an even better FREE plan here! Just started my 3rd trimester today (first pregnancy😅) and what better way to begin than with you!😊

Ps. Don’t listen to the negativity—I (and countless others) love it when you’re dog and kids are in your videos.❤️

I'm 39 +1. About to do this stretch routine again. I've done it a few times...so nice. I cried when I did it before😂 the flexibility was difficult. Lol. Ashley do you have any tips for waiting for baby to come? This is my 2nd...Im going to do vaginal delivery... Just want some motivation and tips if you have some. Xxx

This was very hard for me. 32 weeks with twins and severe pubic symphysis pain. I tried to get in the same positions as you, but it was almost impossible. But I enjoyed trying.

Pregnant with baby number 4 and I am desperately hoping these stretches open my pelvic floor and help my breech baby flip over... I desperately don't want a c section

Thank you!! All the other videos that came were for lower mobility levels. This is so helpful

If I watch it while laying down will it help 😂😂😅😅

Ill be turning 28 weeks tomorrow i stopped working out once i found out i was pregnant bc i lowkey got a little lazy lol but im gonna start doing these exercises since i start my 3rd trimester tomorrow. Pregnant with my first baby 😊

Thank you for this video. I am 37 weeks and had to modify this a little and use yoga blocks and bolster. This is definitely not for people who are just starting yoga on their 3rd trimester, you got to have done yoga throughout your pregnancy.

Thank you so much for this! Is this considered just a preparation for labor or is this also pelvic exercises? I’m trying to see if I need to watch separate videos for pelvic

im 35 weeks, should i start now?

A couple requests for this workout program, could you include the total time for all the workouts that day on the schedule so that we know ahead of time how much time to schedule out for our workout that day to plan other things around it? Also, for some of the walking days particularly the 10 min EZ [3/3 2/2 1/1] 10 min CD days, could you give some clarification? Is that 32 minutes total or 20 minutes total or 22 minutes total? I am confused.

38 weeks and been experiencing a lot of pain and discomfort lately. I just did these stretches after walking and I feel sooo much better. Thank you. I will be making this part of my routine!

Thank you so much for this video! It was exactly what I needed! My hips and pelvis have been hurting for the last few weeks and they feel so much better now.

Is this safe to do at 6 months? Will it not induce early labour?

Im due in 3 days and i can barely move my pelvic area, hopefully these will help, thanks❤

I have a question!!! So is it safe to do these type of workouts when you are like 34 week pregnant. Like am almost there but not quite. I dont want to do anything to induce labor accidentally, but I do want to workout and increase my endurance/prepare myself for labor ?

31 weeks pregnant with twins! And doing this around my 2 year old. This killed! I have been doing your prenatal workout schedule since I found out I was pregnant and have had lots of comments that I look more fit now then before I was pregnant! twin pregnancies are harrrd and without staying in shape with you I think this would be much harder! Thankyou!

Im on week 29 couldnt even do any of these 😢😂

Ashley, thank you so much for providing this free prenatal program. This is my first pregnancy. I didn't work out my first trimester because I didn't want to overdue it. I was used to doing Jillian Michaels workouts. I knew I couldn't do those while pregnant due to the intensity. Luckily, I found your plan when I was 14 weeks. I am currently 21 weeks. I feel so strong and looked toned even as I am putting on weight. I haven't missed many days and this is the most consistent I have been with any workout plan. I feel like your videos are helping me prepare for the physical demands of labor. I can't wait to try your 12-week postpartum plan! Thanks again!

so hard'

Thank you for providing stretches that aren’t yoga

Almost 33 weeks and I really struggled to do these stretches. I am in so much pain

Loved this. So simple and easy to follow :)

Hi Ashley! I am new here and have been following your prenatal training schedule for only a few weeks. I am almost 30 weeks on my third pregnancy. I would NOT describe myself as the athletic type. haha! I didn't ever do a formal work out until after my first was born (5 years ago). I have focused on low impact work outs (yoga and swimming) due to some health issues. Because of those same issues, I'm usually unable to work out year around. All that to say, I can get discouraged because of the "two steps forward, one step back" nature of my fitness journey. But with third baby on the way, I feel the desire to be as healthy and strong as possible for my children! I'm planning to finish your prenatal training and your recommended videos up to L&D. As a reward for sticking with it, I hope to purchase your 12 week post pregnancy plan. I really want to stick with it even though this is so new to me! I appreciate your videos - your example in mothering and your faith in God are so encouraging.

Your daughter is so well behaved. U asked her nicely to stop touching and she stopped

I think I trained one side. I am 35 weeks pregnant 🤰. I enjoyed doing this workout with you. Thank you💝🎁

What are the teas you recommended? Thank you for this video! I love seeing your little one running around

@glowbodypt as a heads up, there are new studies showing negative side effects of raspberry leaf tea so it is not advised to drink it anymore.

In general, thank you so much for your videos and sharing your real life. They have been by my side during my whole pregnancy and i feel strong and prepped for labour

I’m 35 weeks pregnant and started this stretch. Is it ok to do this every day until delivery?

Thanks for awesome workout session. ❤ Would you recommend to start these stretches in second trimester? I am 18.4 weeks pregnant and wondering how soon I should start prepping up for labor.

Just found you and super excited to start incorporating this to my daily exercise routine. Great stuff! Thank you 😊

I’m 32.5 weeks and just found your channel!! I just got the prenatal schedule and I’m about to look at the 12 week postnatal plan too!!

Thank you for being a blessing!!❤️❤️

Omg I love this! I can't believe you have done this amazing program and women still complain cause your beautiful children are in the video!! These work outs are real and in real settings THAT INCLUDE children for pretty much every mother or parent out there. Keep doing what you're doing, love this and forget those complainers

Reminds me a lot of twerking! So, movements that some people judge as overly sexual or “inappropriate” are actually helping prepare for labor.

Love your workouts, i feel much better after them. Thank you <3

Thank you for making this available free. Thank you. I can’t tell you how many programs I’ve spent money on and this is literally the best. It was frustrating me and discouraged me to not find stretching for pregnancy

I took your suggestion on nettle tea but the more research I do , it seems like it’s not recommended for pregnant woman. Now I’m worried 😟

I’m 24 weeks and I have done this twice. It makes me feel so relaxed and GOOD when I’m done. I plan on doing this weekly and increasing as my due date approaches. Thanks. ❤

22 weeks. First time doing this video. I am following pregnancy workout plan. I'm not as flexible but getting there. When did you starts taking dates and teas?

I’m not able to get the workout plan 💔 are you still offering it?

I’m 28wks pregnant I came across your video earlier this week. I was saving it for when I hit 30wks but I woke up with back pain so I decided to do your video stretches and my back feels better!! Thank God

Hello, I am currently at 35 weeks gestation. I have been doing these stretches daily for a few weeks now. Is it safe for me to continue doing these stretches every day until I go into labor?

Hi can we do start this in 32 week

Can you do this when you first find out your pregnant?

I'm on my 33rd week. What week should I start stretching like this?

This is an intermediate to advanced stretch.

is this something you can do daily?

Wooow Ashley am now 36 and 3 days how often can I do this
My edd is 5 june

I’m in my second trimester and this is my first pregnancy. I did not take stretching as seriously as I should have from the start, but now I want to. This video was amazing and really pushed me. Although you moved a little quick for me. I had to pause or rewind your video a lot to keep up.
