Doing stretches on a regular basis when you're pregnant can help you feel your best. The following stretches are useful for easing some of the aches and pains that are common during pregnancy, such as back pain.

For most pregnant people, starting slowly and gradually moving up to 10 repetitions of a stretch each day works well. But for some people with high-risk pregnancies or pregnancy complications, stretching may not be advised. Talk to a member of your health care team to make sure that these stretches are safe for you.
