Pilates and Pregnancy
The Perfect Preparation for
Labor and Delivery
Labor and Delivery
By Paige Waehner
As with any exercise, talk to your doctor before you begin Pilates or continue with it. For beginners, start with an entry-level class or video (see below) and make sure the instructor knows you're pregnant so he or she can offer modifications.
Like any exercise, Pilates isn't for everyone, and if you're not comfortable with the moves, back off. Now isn't the time to try anything too complicated, so stick with the basics and make sure you feel good, which should be the point of any exercise you do.
