The Babers likes yoga!

I am pretty sure whatever yoga I do, the baby enjoys. It gets more swishy and gives some thumps in Shivasana. But I am not sure how long I'll be able to pull off those sun salutations for! The Mayan Massage woman told me a little more about the idea of not lifting heavy things- which is what my body is starting to feel (heavy!). Apparently it is easier to pull the ligaments that keep the uterus in place in pregnancy and therefore throw the physiology off. She even said that in other cultures women are empowered by telling other people to do things for them. Eric must think we live in another culture:) As long as you don't bear down however, your not really going to pull anything. I hadn't gotten a straight answer on the whole lifting/not lifting things in pregnancy so it was good to have a little understanding.

Things are going well- check out The Babers Development for what it is doing this week!

  1. Aren't the movements just too cool...and a little bizarre? Rowan liked yoga in utero as well:) He would probably like doing some with me now too...I should try to make more time for such things. Glad you are doing well!
