“Yoga Ma Baby Ga” is a postnatal
exercise routine designed for women after giving birth. Adjust your routine
for the first 6-12 weeks of recovery and then increase the level as your
stamina, energy and muscle memory return. A woman who has had a cescerean
may want to wait longer to start an exercise program and may need to gauge
her recovery process accordingly.
Before you begin any exercise program, and before you follow any of the
advice, instructions, or any other recommendations in this or any other
exercise program, you should first consult with your doctor. Not all exercises
are suitable for everyone and this or any exercise program may result
in injury. To reduce the risk of injury, never force or strain. If you
experience any pain, shortness of breath, extreme discomfort or irregular
symptoms while exercising, stop the exercise and consult your physician.
All of the following positions are safe for recovering women, but consult
with your doctor and your baby’s pediatrician to determine that they are
safe for you and your baby. Exercises, instructions and advice presented
in this program are designed for persons who are in good health and physically
fit. The recommendations, instructions and advice contained within this
program are in no way intended to replace or to be construed as medical
