I was taking online classes from 9 - 5 so I was having to sit for long periods at a time. kzbin.infoUgkxEhgucmXpcAGYh8fatGFEnOK2V97VIwhG After the first day in a regular table chair, I thought about an exercise ball and ordered one that night. It came the next day! My hips, legs, back and butt couldn't have been happier! I'm almost 5'11" and I ordered the largest size and it was perfect for me. I also have RLS (restless legs) and this helped so much.Pumping it up was a little challenging and definitely gives you a good arm workout, (I'm a 62 yo woman) but it's very doable. Getting the tape centered with the hole to inflate it and then getting the pin back in was also a little tricky. But I love my new "chair" and I love the torquiose color. Hopefully it will also get used for exercise. 😁

[@amandamendoza2139]

I am almost 32 weeks pregnant and i just have to say, i love your videos. I've tried other peoples videos and they just dont seems as knowledgeable and don't give me the same stretch and relaxation as yours give me. So thank you.

[@TheLovespoison]

I'm 27 weeks pregnant, and have been watching your videos every day for the last few weeks. I'm completely new to yoga (never done it before) and your classes are absolutely perfect for me. I have gestational diabetes and have found the my sugar levels are much lower after doing your yoga stretches than they would be if I went for a walk. It's magic. I look forward to more pregnancy yoga ball videos, the half hour sessions are perfect. Love your work, thank you so much!

[@brooklynnwilliams1626]

first time mom here at 23 weeks. this video helped me relax so much! thank you.

I am 37 weeks pregnant and this Yoga class helps me a lot to release the pain out of my body. Thank you Jessica for this amazing class. the 20 min is perfect to stretch and relax.

Thank you so much! 33 weeks pregnant and I feel very relaxed now :) A birthing ball routine of 40 minutes will be amazing to follow as there are none!

I’m 32 weeks pregnant with my first and your videos give me life! I’m getting to that uncomfortable stage and I sleep better every night doing yoga with your videos before bed/during the day! Thank you 🙏

Pregnancy No. 3, 30 weeks, watching you from Chile, really grateful for this class!! Thank you a lot, makes me feel less a hippo or a whale ;)

[@melissabasta3258]

Loved this stretch! I've been following your pregnancy yoga and prenatal videos throughout my pregnancy. I feel so grateful to have found you! I love videos that are 20-25 minutes, though 30 min is fine too. Thanks for making my pregnancy so enjoyable and keeping me feeling so great!

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

Thank you so much, Melissa 💞

[@eilishforward1065]

Thank you for doing this class! 15-20 minute classes are perfect during pregnancy.

[@anamelgar6992]

Jessica, your classes are a true blessing for all pregnant ladies, moreover on this pandemic situation. Thank you so much for such a great work. Kind regards from the Czech Republic.

[@meganf98]

thank you! My hips already feel soooo much better after just one session of these stretches.

[@lucretiatorres4854]

Your videos are amazing! I always feel great afterwards! Thank you so much for your encouragement and positivity :).

[@vanessaprovencher]

Wow, thank you! I loved this class, it was exactly what I needed!!!

[@KraftsforKids]

I'm so grateful I found your channel. I'm currently 32 weeks with my second baby and your videos have been a blessing. I gained almost 70 pounds with my first and they came off slowly over the last 4 years but I was pretty comfortable with myself just before getting pregnant again and vowed that I was going to keep active, keep doing yoga and not get lazy for this one. Not only to prevent gaining so much weight but to have an easy labor and birth experience. Your videos helped keep me motivated during the first trimester when all I wanted to do was sleep, and during the second trimester helped keep me flexible and feeling good. Now, into my third trimester where I just feel so tired, and finding comfortable resting/sleeping positions are becoming a challenge your videos help keep me going and the aches, pains have been much less. I love the keegal incorporations as well. I just want you to know how much you have helped me enjoy this pregnancy and how much I appreciate you. I could go on for hours about other ways you help me and just know I shared several videos of yours to other pregnant friends on a regular basis. I have a bunch of your labor inducing videos saved already and look forward to trying them when the time comes. I'm always so confident that the videos I'm following are safe and effective for me and baby, I was so lost and unsure about what to do during my first that I just stopped exercising. You. Are. Phenomenal! I'm forever thankful for you 💕

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

aw, thank you so much, Michelle! Your kind words really make me love what I get to do :) Congratulations on your pregnancy! You are doing incredible and thank YOU so much for your support! xo

[@loretotormen886]

Hi, 30 weeks pregnant. I would very much appreciate a longer class for yoga ball ! Loved this one! thank you for your videos, they are perfect for me ! thank you for your generosity !

[@valeriemuradian4034]

Thanks for your amazing videos! I'm 36 weeks currently and 20-30 minute workouts are perfect for me

[@lillypink002]

This was amazing! I can't believe how good I feel afterwards😀 I'm 20w with my 2nd and this is my first time with the ball. So glad I got it! Will be watching/doing your videos daily 😊

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

So glad you enjoyed it and congratulations on pregnancy #2!

[@aminzulshijir90]

Thank you so much. It helped me a lot to release my pain. 20-30 min is perfect for stretching.

[@stephaniedallura7182]

36 weeks 5 days, and I think a 20-min stretch/light strengthening class is perfect at this stage! Prior to 35 weeks I was very comfortable with 30-min classes.

[@jamielee4265]

I think 20 minutes was perfect for a stretching class, though I do like 30 minutes for a bigger workout. Honestly I've loved all of your videos, thank you!

[@AM-sz6yq]

This is the best pregnancy stretch I’ve done! Thanks!

[@tanyanishiordain1561]

Thanks for another lovely video. In terms of ideal length … I tend to prefer the 30 mins plus. But it is great to have the variety your channel kindly offers.

[@hannahburns5920]

Another amazing yoga class, thank you so much!!

[@mokasjc]

Thank you for the class! 25 to 30 min is perfect for me.

[@latortadolceriaa]

That’s a wonderful class! Thank you so much ❤️✨

[@m0ndes]

Thank you! Oh I would love you pick a yoga card for me! I am 33 w pregnant, and following your videos almost daily since I was about 12w.... I love them. I like the variety, some days I am on fire and I look for a whole body workouts, sometimes, like today, I feel really tired and this stretches are what I need to feel a bit more energised and also get some movement done!

[@SimplyCryss]

Loved this class ! Thanks so much

[@KingaGorski]

I never thought of having a stretch ball yoga class (though I've also never been preggo haha). Awesome!

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

Kinga Gorski Oh yes... it’s when you are pregnant the ball becomes key! My first birth I took my ball to the hospital by my 3rd now the hospital has them there for moms (so they laughed when we brought our own). Thanks for WLC 😘 Going to check out your video now!

[@lhynaramos4765]

Amazing class! a 30-40 min class will be ideal for me!

[@mariadahlhansen4448]

32 weeks preagnet. Your video helps me so much, have alot of pain in my pregnancy. Only use your video through the pregnancy, yours are the best💕

[@SamA-vb1le]

This was a great stretch. I’m 38 weeks and found this very relaxing and comfortable for areas that are hurting especially around the groin area. Thank you! 😊

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

So glad you enjoyed it, Sam! Getting close now 💞

[@hayaabbas5513]

You are amazing.. and the ball is wonderful for stress and back pain.. thanks!

[@BalancedtotheCore]

Oh my goodness - that final pose is AMAZING!! I need to buy a bolster like pronto!

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

Balanced to the Core Thank you for watching!! There are lots of great bolsters. Mine is from half moon, sometimes they have pretty good sales 🙌

[@gilidardikman-yoffe8008]

Thank you! I love your classes, have been doing them throughout my pregnancy. 20 minutes is perfect for me. I have a question: you said here not to do the kegel excercise after 36 weeks, why is that? You didn't mention this restricstion in other videos which are safe for all trimesters. I wonder since I'm 35 weeks so reaching that limit soon... And another question: what is the diameter of the ball you use here? Mine is 65 cm and it feels too low...

[@margohiggins5935]

Thank you. Very grounding practice. Your kind and calm energy was appreciated during the practice. Can you pick a card for me?

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

Margo Higgins So happy you enjoyed it. I turned the cards upside down, said your name and picked your card. The card I picked for you is the quote from the movie, The Help. “You is kind, You is smart, you is important” I try to tell my babies/kids this as often as possible 💕

[@lilscollingwood]

I’d like you to pick a yoga card for me! And I have a question - is it desirable to feel a stretch in the linea alba during back bends, or should we back off from going too far if it’s pulling there ? I loved this video and I would love more yoga ball videos for 3rd trimester :) 20-30mins is an ideal length

Hi, I am currently 31 weeks with my second child although this is my fourth pregnancy as we had a miscarriage followed by a stillbirth before my son was born. I did not enjoy my pregnancy with my son as I was sick the whole nine months and even more worried the whole time. The delivery went great but I had a complication post-delivery and the recovery was HARD and took me close to 3 months to physically feel recovered. I did yoga most of my pregnancy with my son but never found a good channel to follow and jumped from video to video. This time around I was lucky enough to stumble upon your page and it has been so good for me! I have been learning so many techniques, fun facts, and fun ways to experience pregnancy and it has really helped my mindset about the delivery process. Overall, I have found joy in this current pregnancy and have been enjoying it much more than my previous three but have been more nervous about the delivery than ever before and your videos have not only helped my physical ailments and soreness but has also been teaching me to have confidence in my body regarding the birth and postpartum phase. I do stretches or exercises with you once to twice a day and have also been listening to your informational videos more and more in my third trimester. Thank you for posting such positive, easy to follow, safe for pregnancy videos and for teaching me so many new things!

[@nelag4421]

Hi Jessica, you are the best. I am doing my yoga practice with you every day. Your energy is awesome. Also, I have scoliosis and constantly upper and lower back pain, if you have some advices and more videos it would be very helpful. Thank you for your freebies ❤️🎀

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

Hi Nela! Thank you so much for your support :) I'm happy you are enjoying the yoga videos! I'm sorry you are in pain daily :( I don't know a lot about specific recommendations for scoliosis. I'm guessing you have a physio that you work with and you do any modifications that you need? Are there certain movements you find helpful? I'll keep making more videos :) Congratulations on your pregnancy!
