1 Hip openers (seated and standing) are wonderful because they create the space and flexibility needed for labor.  Gentle abdominal poses such as cat-cow, opposite arm and leg extension, modified side plank, and full or modified plank can be OK during your first trimester.
People who wish to remain fit set out a routine and follow it judiciously. Along with treadmill, spinning and lifting weights stretches are also important to keep your body flexible. This is where plank poses help. There are several types of plank poses and side plank also known as Vasishtasana in yoga is one of them. In side plank the person works the back and strengthens the spine, buttocks and legs. Start holding side plank for 10-15 seconds for each side and gradually increase time to 60-90 seconds. Do 3-5 reps for each side.
