Thank you so much for these videos. I just tried this out after a week in agony from an aching back and I my back actually feels looser and is pain free. Definitely subscribed and I can't wait to do more.

[@lucyblack5860]

Just like to thank Apple Yoga for these videos. I started doing each episode in sequence (1-5) once a day before I was pregnant, whilst pregnant and now a few weeks away from my due date I feel really good! Would not be in such good shape without these exercises, I've experienced barely any back/hip problems and I know it'll all be very beneficial when I go into labour. Highly recommended thanks Katy!

[@FuturePhotoGroup]

Thank you! I'm 12 weeks and have not been able to work out in weeks due to nausea. This gave me hope :)

[@amberpatrice9]

I teach dance and although I still enjoy dancing, I'm still really tense and uncomfortable. I've been finding it hard to sleep I just completed this ten minute work-out and I feel so relaxed and ready for bed!! Thank you for this video!! I'm looking forward to doing the 2nd episode tomorrow!!

[@sarad.m.9072]

im 24 weeks pregnant have a lot of soreness in the ligaments between my legs and in my right side where my gallbladder was removed. i decided to give this a try and oh my goodness it felt so good. thank you!!

[@ikukoonofloyd2104]

Hi , I’m 16 weeks now and finally started light exercises after tough morning sickness period. As I stopped work out and lost muscles, this yoga routine really stretches my body, thank you !

[@amandagardner4689]

Love this! I felt so relaxed after this video. A lot of prenatal yoga videos I've come across have been very fast-paced which is odd to me since I can't be the only pregnant lady struggling to catch my breath, ha! This was a perfect way to release tension and feel connected to my body while it's growing my little one ❤️

[@reneetsj33]

These are the best prenatal yoga videos I could find on KZbin. I am now 5 months and use them to tide me over between weekly classes. I have now purchased the full DVD on Katy's website, can't wait for it to arrive.

[@ForeverYoung2790]

This was so helpful! I'll be 20 weeks in 2 days and the past few days my hips have been hurting so badly! I just did this video and number 2 back to back and I feel so good! The pressure in my hips is gone.definitely doing this everyday!

[@Blkftmariposa1371]

Omg I'm so glad I have found this! I've been using these videos from 18wks till now 35wks it makes a world of difference. I am a massage therapist and i am still working full time I think these videos have a lot to do with that! I do a video in the am and at night and if I'm really busy at work I'll squeeze in some of her stretches at work! Thank you so much! Hope Katie Appleton had a healthy baby!

[@DreamDeeply37]

Thank you sooo much for posting this! Katy has a very nice, calm voice and it feels like she is actually talking to me. I'm hoping that relaxing will help take away these darn migraine headaches! Thanks again!

[@malismamma09]

You're amazing!! I'm 19 weeks pregnant & after the whole session my back popped & it felt amazing!! Bless you!😁👍💖

[@violetasopes]

I love your energy! I'm late into my first trimester, first pregnancy, and I enjoyed this video so much! Thank you.

[@kong2461]

Thank you for this! I'm 29 weeks pregnant and have had a very sore back this past 2 days. These exercises were so gentle - too gentle I thought initially to make any difference - but they worked! My back is feeling so much better. I'll be doing these for the rest of my pregnancy now.

[@autumnschultz4855]

I came across these videos while researching different videos and these videos are by far my favorite! I have been working out with these videos since the last few weeks of my first trimester and I just love how open my body feels after doing these yoga poses! thank you!

[@meeramanian]

I love this yoga series from Katy. Very relaxing and the sound of her voice is so paced to follow along. Great job Katy!

[@Charcole514]

I have been searching for the right pregnancy yoga video for weeks now, and many of them did a lot of crunching the belly which hurt, or were WAY too patronizing. This one is absolutely perfect, and I want to follow this pregnancy workout for the rest of my pregnancy. It made me feel good and connected and gave me a workout. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!

[@malibu55555]

31 weeks here. That was absolutely wonderful. I woke up this morning feeling so uncomfortable. it felt so much better as i was doing the poses and after. thank you for the video

[@hurricaneNOIZE]

What a great video!!! 20 weeks pregnant and have been dying to go to the gym but am not allowed to! My bones, my hips, everything hurts and this video alone has made me feel wonderful just now!!! I feel stretched out!! Thank you sooo much! Can't wait to try the rest of the episodes!!

[@erikayoungberg5466]

These videos work out all of the pregnancy tight spots. I cannot express how much I love them. Thank you!

[@ducknoired]

Thank you so much for these brilliant little increments. I had major complications in my first four months and spent a lot of it in bed. I also live somewhere quite isolated where the weather makes it hard to go outside - and I need to make an international move at 30 weeks! Here at 22 weeks I'm feeling physically weak, overwhelmed and very unprepared for what's to come. These little increments are helping me so much to start claiming my body back, feel stronger and start imagining childbirth and motherhood in manageable chunks. Thank you again for making this accessible!

[@noorinhasan3162]

Thank you so much Katy! I'm in my third trimester and I have been enjoying your clips, I like how you divide them into 10 min workouts! I subscribed and hopefully going through 3-4 episodes will be part of my daily routine.

[@85eMCat]

My favorite pre-natal yoga video! It's easy and effective. The best one I've found. Thank you so much for this video.

[@TaniaDadoun]

Thank you Katie Appleton! I'm 33 weeks pregnant. I started doing your yoga video every day and since all the pains I had in my pubic gone have diminished! THANK YOU!!!

[@PregnancyandPostpartumTV]

This was amazing for my lower back! Thank you 💕

[@wonderland1452]

this is my favariot one so far. even I added some other yoga from her episodes, this one is the must do.

[@jennifercoats3110]

Loved this! I'm 14 weeks and this felt great :) Really helped with my anxiety too.

[@sarithajayasinghe]

I did hard yoga b4 and now I'm 16 week pregnant .. now I'm following this and I love it .. thank you

[@chrissy_rose8052]

This is my 6th pregnancy and this is by far the best, quickest, most effective yoga set that I have done. Thank you!

[@sarahmire6136]

Thank you so much! This helped me immensely today! Going to be adding this to my regimen.

[@MissJoanna17]

Loved this yoga routine!! I am 30 weeks pregnant and this was just perfect. It wasn't too hard or too easy. Two thumbs up!

[@radiyyabegum707]

MissJoanna1

[@amandacarrington5582]

So happy for you me to

[@lauraguinto5592]

I've done quite a few pregnancy yoga videos and despite the short length this one may be my favorite one! Relaxing way to wake up and stretch my achy body this morning. Looking forward to trying the other videos!

[@MrsRAJJAE]

I'm 38 weeks pregnant and haven't done yoga at all this entire time until today. In fact I did parts 1-3 & I have never felt more relaxed. My joints were super tight and my pelvic area was in intense pain. These videos helped SOOOO MUCH today

[@mjc394]

This is amazing! I feel so good right now. I had no idea how sore and neglected my body was until after I finished this routine. I'm usually so tired all the time, but now I feel energized and ready to start my day. Thanks so much for posting. I can't wait to watch the rest of this series.

[@hodso1ra]

I'm 25 weeks, a constantly sore. I wish I had found this months ago! Can't wait to work this into my daily workout routine!

[@cassandracoons8459]

This was fantastic! Im in my 3rd trimester and this is so relaxing to do after work. Great job incorporating the breath :) Very helpful

[@cammiehanratty5834]

Really great! I'm entering my 40th week of pregnancy and needed to be centered and stretch. thank you!

[@faelynnrose1899]

I love this! Thank you for such a relaxing, beautiful yoga routine. This helped me relax and breathe so much in my pregnancy.

[@laurascrimgeour2855]

Thank you for this. My back has been aching for days. 10 minutes of your workout and the pain is gone! This is wonderful :D.

[@MsGdasilva]

I am a yoga instructor and it has been getting harder and harder to keep my home practise up during my pregnancy but this felt so natural and just what my body was asking for. Thank you!

[@dinakoldeibekova7412]

The best stretching for pregnant so far. Even some moves look so easy, but you can really feel that you needed stretch in that area, especially related to back! Thanks!

[@s.kelley2024]

I've harbored so much pain and stress in my third pregnancy that my doctor put me on muscle relaxers. I hated the way they made me feel though (grumbly, hungover, etc.) and I never took them after the first time. This gave me instant relief from the pain and eased my stress levels as well. I am a yoga novice but this was totally accessible to me. Thank you so very much from both baby and me!

[@lida_sava]

Katy Appleton is the best! Thank you very much for that video!

[@vixschannel_igni]

Thank you so much for this video! My back has been so sore all day and this has helped to alleviate some of the pain! ❤️

[@sberryjubilee]

Thanks katy, I feel great after the workout. I've been having trouble with my lower back since pregnancy, but these workouts help

[@twirlingtulles]

this is the best pregnancy yoga video out there. everytime i start doing it, i have serious pain in my thighs (being in the last trimester all my muscles are pinched up), at the end, miraculously, the pain is gone! it's crazy! thank you!

[@KWilliamsacoustic]

Thanks for this episode! It's very much suiting me now at full term with far less mobility at my disposal than I have had earlier. TY so much.

[@yasnavarro2700]

Im 25 weeks pregnant and this the first time i try any try of workout, i feel so much more relaxed as well as with my breathing. Thank You!

[@insil1977]

I'm in my first trimester and I already learned more about my body from this video then from other sites about pregnancy. thank you so much for this very inspiring video, which I'm gonna do every day !

[@DragonxnHD]

Still doing this yoga for my second pregnancy in 2020. Love it

[@magicalmomlaura]

This is my favorite video for when my hips and lower back feel tight and it is calming. Thanks for the video!

[@marjaliisa7166]

Thank You so much, been doing your prenatal videos from 1 trimester and currently I´m already 33 weeks, feel great!

[@tomasgonzalo2997]

Still doing all these 10 minute pregnancy yoga even 37 weeks here! So relaxing!!

[@HeyAmyGrace]

This was amazing! Thank you for making this video! I feel so refreshed and well after doing it! Looking forward to doing more throughout my pregnancy.

[@kaythaley9202]

[@Sarah78Jean]

Thank you so much for these calming and amazing videos i watch them on a daily now! Thank you!

[@kotunuruga8795]

I am 27 weeks in the 3rd pregnancy. I usually jog a few times a week but cannot now due to a lot of ligament pain. So I am now trying out yoga and this was great. Thank you. I will be subscribing!

[@marinkavdeursenxedits]

Excellent work out and her voice is very soothing as well, I love how she explains the moves in a very calm manner.

[@hatchetlovesinsane]

I love your work outs! I am a plus sized 14 wks pregnant. And your workouts are great! Easy and simple for women like me

[@alexisheitz2113]

This is my favorite exercise. Its very relaxing and really helps with my back being as I'm in my 2nd trimester.

[@christinaorozco6732]

Thank you! One episode and I already feel relaxed and way more flexible! I'm 24 weeks :)

[@meganmoore7086]

Thank you so much, I found so much relief in my upper back and hips where I've been so sore and strained. Definitely doing this every day.

[@erenathompson9228]

Thank you so much - wish I had searched these you tube vidclips way earlier in my pregnancy.

[@mnajar8a]

wow thank you. I am in my second trimester but just started to think about doing yoga! this was amazing. I am looking forward to do the rest of the series every day., I feel a lot more energetic, less fatigue and I think my muscles were given a nice message!

[@CountryMomma0426]

Fantastic. In my first trimester and I have horrible sciatica from my last pregnancy. It's getting worse already and this helped so much tonight. I feel tons better (: will be doing these daily

[@JoyMCharlton]

Thanks Katy. With decreasing the amount of physical activity i do due to pregnancy ive lost some of the things that helped me to relax and this was great to replace those actvities.

[@469whitetiger1]

I was looking for a great yoga video and im so happy i found 1 even though im kinda late i only got 9 more weeks till my daughter due but i love it its relaxing and i love how you explain and not be so hard on people thanks..

[@morganmurrell5557]

I am 23 weeks & have been very active this pregnancy, I so enjoy running or even getting cardio on my elliptical. just recently ive started suffering from sciatica :( this felt great in my lower back and in my hips. I subscribed so I wont lose this video! thank you so much :)

[@SorayaAzizSouleymane]

I have never done Yoga before but I found this very easy to complete and I feel energised and I'm sure my baby feels the same. this is excellent for a start, I can't wait to try episode II. thank you Lady!

[@AndriaBieberDesigns]

I have never done yoga before. This is a nice video I am in my second trimester

[@ritafabiao3541]

Loved this routine! Thank you so much for posting it! 💙

[@katalinpinter9749]

Amazing yoga session, thank you so much! Great knowledge, very good, clear instructions, nice and pleasant personality.

[@acmulhern]

This is such a great video. I used it all throughout pregnancy and am not still using it post-pregnancy for some gentle stretching before workouts.

[@yaninahobbs8470]

Love it!! Thank you!!

[@surojhiniramessersing5228]

I am so glad that I came across your pregnancy yoga videos... really all of them helped me through a really bad backache... Really .... thanks a lot

[@sahardaves]

this was honestly the best prenatal workout I have done and I trust me I do a lot loved it !! ❤❤❤❤

[@pamelanord8347]

I am 11weeks and was feeling so sick and sore before I did this yoga workout. This is my fourth pregnancy and I wish I would have found this sooner. I feel so much better after just 10 mins! Thank you!!

[@Here2vibe]

great and not exhausting workout for me. I have low muscle power and tissue and I really need some good stretches and poses that are easy and not too straining on my body. first trimester now, but I will continue this routine and the other videos in this playlist as best I can. the breathing exercises are great for me!

[@youcancallmealice483]

i just bumped into this video, and will be doing this every day from now on ( im 22 weeks, first baby).. felt soo good tho im just as flexible as a stick lol

[@HarrietShearsmith]

What a fab video, I loved being pregnant!

[@shlord]

Love this gentle pregnancy workout. Thank you!

[@byrdinez]

Thanks for this. I'm in my first trimester and usually not very active but I'm determined to take better care of myself.

[@basicyogapositions665]

Thanks Katie! Lovely sequence, I'm sure the babies in the world are grateful:-)

[@neliza88]

This was amazing! Exactly what I needed🙌🏽 Thank you!

[@ElTarotMx]

I like this routine, it's pretty gentle and relaxing!

[@afrobae9244]

I'm 15 weeks and I really loved this thanks love

[@kennajhodgson]

This was so nice and refreshing at 36 weeks! Thank you!

[@honeycupidity]

34 weeks tomorrow ! And this was very relaxing and very much needed for stress relief

[@devynmcshane9895]

I'm so glad this is on here, I'd a lot of pain and discomfort and the yoga is really helping to relax my muscles without hurting my child. I just wish I had started at my 3rd month XD

[@annarosamond7261]

This is the best prenatal yoga I've tried so far. I'm in my third trimester and I'm still fairly new, all the other where way to hard my lower back.

[@NuhaM1]

I'm 20 weeks pregnant and this is the first time I've tried Yoga. I feel good after 10minutes, will definitely keep going with this!

[@ambycakes]

This was fantastic!

[@anniegurung4377]

It had been months me searching for prenatal yoga and finally i found You. Easy and effective and feels really good..love u so much for making my body feel fresh again..by the way i m 20 weeks and ladies its better to do something than nothing at all..

[@Kate-ij7fz]

Thank you! Even though I am only at 8 weeks, I wish I found you sooner :) I feel so much better after just 10 min.

[@CamdenSmithNaples]

In my second almost third trimester I Love this #yogaforpregnancy because it relieves the lower back and really opens up the hips. I do this series parts 1-4 or 1-3 then part 5 after cardio or weights. It also reduces my foot swelling which has been mild thus far but has been accompanied by pain in my heels due to fluid. After this, I have relief for a few hours.

[@annemaveera5112]

I'm 18 weeks, start to have lower back pain and sharp pain in the knee. I tried this once and it helped, definitely going to do this in routine. Thank you

[@dangergirlfalconshark1042]

Thank you so much! You have helped me immensely with these videos.

[@juliaantonova4870]

Thank you Kathie! This exercises are easy and not harmful for pregnant women. I did quiet strong yoga before pregnancy, but now my baby needs more gentle treatment. These exercises are just perfect!!

[@samanthashi552]

Just wanna thank you for this wonderful yoga video. I followed the video almost everyday during my pregnancy. It helped to relieve my back pain and nausea
