Helps With
A gentle lower body stretch that helps ease tightness through the back of the legs, improves flexibility and supports pelvic comfort as your bump grows.
Instructions
-
1
Seated Start
Begin in a seated ball position, sitting tall with your feet flat to the floor.
-
2
Raise Right Leg
Slowly raise your right leg until it is extended out in front of you at around 90 degrees.
-
3
Anchor Left Leg
Keep your left leg bent with your foot firmly planted on the floor for stability.
-
4
Lean Forward
Lean slightly forward from the hips until you feel a gentle stretch through the back of your leg.
-
5
Hold & Release
Hold the stretch as long as feels comfortable, then ease back down and switch sides.
Tip
Avoid bouncing into the stretch — your relaxin hormone is already softening your joints, so a slow, steady lean is safer and more effective.
