Prenatal Yoga: Easing Leg Cramps

Sometimes those involuntary muscle groups in the legs can act up during pregnancy giving us leg cramps and spasms or a feeling of reduced blood flow. This sequence aims to release the legs and stimulate blood flow to those stagnant areas so you can move and sleep and practice with a bit more ease in your pregnancy. Note: You will need a bolster or a few pillows for this class. Check out our video, 'How To Make Your Own Bolster', located in our blog. And if you like this class, you can check out Sarah-Jane's other prenatal yoga classes: Prenatal Yoga for Core Strength, Prenatal Yoga for Early Pregnancy, and Prenatal Yoga: Releasing the Spine.

I can really tell the difference thank you
Can you lie on your right side at the end? Or it's necessary to lie on your left side? Thank you!
In the video I remark that the reason we have leg cramps is there less "blood flow to lower half of baby" I meant "less to lower half of the BODY" as much of our increased blood volume is circulating to baby via cord/ placenta. We also get leg cramps due to lack of hydration so drink up! Thanks mamas
Good
