My MIL was just saying that stretching in pregnancy can be unsafe. Google shows me all the stretches that ARE safe.. but what ones do I need to avoid?

Question

In the morning in bed I stretch a ton. Nothing formal just waking up and relaxing.

Answer

Basic stretching is good. Just don’t do crazy yoga positions.

Answer

Avoid full back bends, but pretty much stretching is safe, maybe not hand stands lol

Answer

Stretching is fine, I still do yoga i just can't do anything to compress my belly, common sense

Answer

I was advised by my OBGYN to stretch everyday because my hip is giving me issues. It helps with the breathing issues that come with later pregnancy. Because my breathing is shit too lol. Stretch away
