Prenatal Yoga Easy Forward Bend

o    Sit with the legs straight, as your tummy grows you will find it more comfortable to open the legs wide sideways to allow more space to accommodate the belly.
o    Place the hands on the knees, with the back straight and take an inhalation.
o    On the out breath, bend from the hips, bringing the hands down further to the shin or until you reach a comfortable position without compressing the tummy. Keep the back as straight as possible and the neck in line with the back.

o    Hold the position for about 20 seconds. Breathe in and straighten up again slowly.

This is the 11th posture in the prenatal yoga workout
