Educational options for an uncomplicated pregnancy, after checking with your midwife or obstetrician what activity you can do. The “Beginner” level describes the movement; it does not confirm suitability for your pregnancy.
Before you begin. If you have a complication, an obstetric restriction, pelvic pain or difficulty controlling your pelvic floor, request an individual adaptation before using these sessions. They are not a postnatal recovery programme.
Effort. You should be able to talk comfortably. Reduce repetitions or duration depending on the day, breathe during exertion and avoid exhaustion. The aim is not muscular failure.
When to stop. Stop exercising and seek medical attention for vaginal bleeding, fluid leakage, regular painful contractions, chest pain, fainting or unusual breathlessness. Do not restart until you receive guidance. Also seek advice for a severe headache, vision changes, pain or swelling in one calf, or a decrease in your baby's usual movements. For severe symptoms or an emergency, call 112.
Duration is approximate. Prepare your equipment and take the indicated rests; needing more rest can make the workout longer.
These movements are already part of the workout. Do them in their scheduled place rather than repeating them as extra work.
