The Yoga Source
Re: Prenatal Yoga (1999)
I have been studying Bikram yoga for about a year now at
the Yoga
Source on Hopkins in Berkeley, across from the Monterey Market.
Although it is not recommended that you start taking this yoga while
pregnant because it is very strenuous, if you start before you
conceive you can continue throughout the pregnancy. My first
pregnancy was awful; I had bad morning sickness for the entire 9
months. But now that I am three months into my second, I've
really been noticing a difference now that I'm taking yoga. I can
go into yoga class feeling so sick I don't think I'll make it through
class, and by the end of class the morning sickness is completely
gone! And my overall level of nausea is much lower. They also say
the yoga makes the delivery easier by strengthening the appropriate
muscles. We'll see. (I hope so; my first was a 49-hour labor!)
