1. Tadasana-Mountain Pose: Tadasana is a great yoga pose for pregnant women. It helps to strengthen your spine and eases your back pain too. How To Do : --> Stand with feet spread out at hips width. --> Keep your spine erect, with hands resting on either side of the body and palms facing the thighs. --> Stretch your hands and join the palms in Namaskar Mudra. --> Elongate your spine while inhaling deeply. Lift your hands above your head at the same time. --> Stretch your spine as much as possible. But remember not to put pressure on your back. --> Now, tilt your head backward and keep your eyes on the fingertips. --> Hold the pose for a slow count of 10. Don’t forget to deeply breathe in and out. --> With a deep exhalation, relax your body and bring your feet back to the floor. --> Rest your hands with palms on the thighs.
