Pregnancy Stretching Exercises TO PREPARE FOR LABOR & BIRTH

Want the best stretches and exercises to prepare your body for labor and birth? This is the pregnancy stretching video you need! No exercise can actually induce labor but this prenatal stretching routine is perfect for 3rd trimester. It will help get your baby in the perfect position, open up your hips, align the pelvis, reduce pregnancy back pain, and increase flexibility in your pelvic and groin muscles to prepare for a faster and easier labor and birth. Do this pregnancy stretching routine weekly or every other week during third trimester to best prepare the body for labor.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Initially I was paying $34+ monthly for programs when there was an even better FREE plan here! Just started my 3rd trimester today (first pregnancy😅) and what better way to begin than with you!😊

Ps. Don’t listen to the negativity—I (and countless others) love it when you’re dog and kids are in your videos.❤️

I like the raw/real moments with your kids because it reminds me that I can still workout when my kids are running around. Thank you for the real and funny moments with them too, I appreciate it very much. Proof that I have no excuses. 4 weeks to go until baby number 3! Keep up the good work and thank you!

I am a Christian and I could only find Yoga videos, I’m so glad I found your YouTube channel! I love the information you provide even during the exercise like the raspberry leaf tea and eating dates! I’m a first time mom and so grateful for you! Thank you!

Hey Ashley! I am an international missionary living abroad with my husband and we are expecting our first baby boy this April. Your videos have helped guide me all throughout my pregnancy and I really appreciate your other informative videos. I, too, want as natural of a birth as possible, and with my date rapidly approaching, this stretching video has been my companion. The love you have for God is displayed throughout your home, your kids, your personality, and your workouts. Thank you for being such a great resource!

God bless,
Aubrey Payne

I had my daughter on April 3rd and it was such a fast delivery! I truly believe it had to do with your workouts, especially this video, and preparing my body for labor! So excited to start the post pregnancy plan next month! ❤

[alexnathanmonk]

Omg I love this! I can't believe you have done this amazing program and women still complain cause your beautiful children are in the video!! These work outs are real and in real settings THAT INCLUDE children for pretty much every mother or parent out there. Keep doing what you're doing, love this and forget those complainers

I’m 33 weeks pregnant with my second and have been struggling soooo badly with lower back pain. Any little bit of bending down or picking things up will have me practically bedridden for the rest of the night. I just did this stretch before bed and feel immediate relief in my back. 🙏🏻 Hoping this will help me sleep better tonight, but the instant relief after i finished the stretches makes me so happy! Thank you!

I am 41+5 and been in 24hrs of early labour. Just completed this stretch and my hips feel better and ready for birth phase. Thanks 🙏🏾

[marypiasecki]

I’m 24 weeks and I have done this twice. It makes me feel so relaxed and GOOD when I’m done. I plan on doing this weekly and increasing as my due date approaches. Thanks. ❤

This was THE BEST stretch routine I have found yet! 3rd trimester has me super tight and I got so many kinks and pops out within the first 5 mins, even more than I get out when doing prenatal yoga. Thank you for being real with your kids while filming the workout routine, they seem respectful to what you have to get done. No one appreciates fakeness, your genuineness will keep me coming back xoxo

Thank you so much. 🥰🥰🥰🥰I have done this exercise during my 3rd trimester (not everyday but, I tried to find time to do so) and my mucus plug started to come out at 9PM when I was 39w2d pregnant. I got a strong contraction on the next day without water break which I am very grateful about. The contraction started at 3AM and it got faster at 7:00 AM and was fully dilated at 8:00AM. The Dr. broke my water at 9:45AM and I started pushing at 9:48AM. With a relief, my baby boy was born safely at 9:58 AM. 🥰🥰🥰

[misslaaaura]

I am 33 weeks. Thank you! I am a Christian too. This was hard for me so I will do it twice a week from now on and continue walking.

[JeremyandCaty]

already commented on this during my third pregnancy and feel the need to do it again at 38 weeks pregnant with my fourth! love this routine and Ashley's intentionality. I did this while I was in labor with my third and plan to continue this routine to relax and prepare for this 4th little babes arrival. Thank you again!

[patriciatavira]

I’ve done so many stretching and work out videos during pregnancy and I have to be honest, this one felt the BEST. Hips were always my weak point, so loving the way I feel afterwards 😍 thanks you! I’m 34 weeks ✨

[tpippwn]

I’m currently 30wks pregnant with baby #3. I have 18m twins running around me and your workout program has been exactly what I was looking for with my last pregnancy. Thank you! Loving every workout.

[maryjosephine]

I have just finished this one, too. Very challenging and super relaxing as well. Tho my stretching is not as professional as yours but I will do this every single day until the labor. I also like how you encourage me to keep going. I'm sure my stretching will improve!! Thanks a lot, Ashley!!

[courtneyoaida]

This was so relaxing and needed after the workout! Also, I'm sad to hear you received negative comments about your kids in your videos. They're so sweet and it gives me hope to see you working out with your children! It shows me it will be possible once my little one arrives as well! Plus, you're giving us all amazing, FREE content! It is beyond professional! Thank you so much!

[dwheeler]

My hips needed this so bad! Looking forward to adding this to the prenatal program. Thank you Ashley for the help

[omegatennant]

Hi Ashley, thank you for your selfless service to the community! I came across your videos a week ago (now 22 weeks pregnant) and I am SO excited to journey with you through the rest of my pregnancy and any future ones as well. You are an excellent and inspiring coach and your genuine love for your kinds and all of us is contagious. God bless you, momma!

[mhorsman]

So grateful to be able to do this today! I feel so much better already. 40wks and 5days with baby #5. The last week has felt significantly harder to keep up, so I’m grateful to be able to do something good for my body without overexerting myself in this waiting time. Thank you Ashley!!
