Round Ligament pain

During pregnancy the strong ligaments that surround and support your uterus stretch and thicken to accommodate the growing belly. This can sometimes cause discomfort, experienced as a sharp or "jabbing pain” in the groin, or lower belly, on both or just one side.

Recommended asanas for pregnant woman:

• Practise-side lying savasana - with a pillow between the legs

• Cat pose (not cow pose!)

• Pelvic Tilts

• Tadasana - practice good posture from your feet to the top of your head in particularthink aboutpelvic and lumbar spine alignment.

Recommended external support:

• Belly Band: a belly band can help by lifting and stabilizing your growing belly. This reduces the sudden stretching of the round ligament during activities like walking or transitioning from sitting to standing.
