@alexandrayaeger: As our bellies grow, the hips/pelvis go into an anterior pelvic tilt. Basically meaning your hips start to “fall” forward more than they naturally would Which results in a weakened core, a lot of strain to the lower back and muscle imbalances alllllllll overrrrr 😓 but there are a few things you can do to help yourself out - focus on (safe) core strength/engagement throughout your day - ensure you’re incorporating bilateral movements when you can and where you feel comfortable - focus on strengthening your back and upper body as a whole, not any one specific portion - utilize core training that’s optimal for your new body and growing belly (ie- weighted marches, bird dogs, etc) - incorporate pelvic floor exercises and stretching exercises that help you strengthen AND relax your body (more inside my app!) R E M E M B E R to take it slow and only do what you’re comfortable with. Every pregnancy has different limitations so be sure to have a chat with your OB first! Hope this helps mamas 🫶🏻🤰🏻✨ #pregnacy #pregnacyworkout #pregnacytips #26weekspregnant #pregnacybackpain
