Welcome to
Momsprep Community
My name is Meenakshi Trivedi (Pregnancy Yoga Expert). This website is a small initiative to cater the female audience by using proper platform. Whenever any couple thinks of extending the family first thing comes up is let's do some research on how other are dealing with this journey or atleast how they started it. So, here I'll make you aware of your body in your Fertility, Pregnancy or Postpregnancy stage by the help of "Yoga". My specialty is in Fertility, Pregnancy and Postpregnancy Yoga. I also conduct regular female yoga classes. I believe in making female community more stronger even when they are in their most crucial stage of their lives.
Usually when people think of "Yoga" first thought which comes in the mind is getting slim-trim flexible body through Asana or people think it's just sitting at one place by closing their eyes through Pranayama. Though both the thinking is correct as we know Yoga is all about "Body-Mind-Soul" but having said this we still dint touch the soul as only body and mind part got covered. So, here I come my lovely ladies, Yoga can help you to get in Pregnancy, to be in Pregnancy and even after the Pregnancy. There are certain Asana and flow of sequence which can help you to make your pelvic muscles stronger and help you to make these journey of your life a cakewalk.
You can't avoid or ignore few people from your life but one thing sure you can keep the remote control of your happiness with yourself by listening soothing music.
Usually when people think of Yoga they think either it is for loosing weight or to calm down the moneky mind but there's one more aspect to it which can help you to make your reproductive organ healthy and improves the function of the endocrine system.
The name itself says its for pregnant women so to explain you in simple language "Prenatal Yoga" is to make the pregnancy easy as well as to prepare the body for the labor. We all know Pregnancy changes the entire perspective of your life.
Postnatal Yoga, is done once the baby arrives in the world. So, it's time to get back into shape. Most of the females by this time feel now the work is done and we can relax but that's not ture medically by 45 days after consulting your gynae
Besides gaining physical strength, I gained a lot of mental strength that got me through the most crucial time of the entire journey - labor. In my third trimester, i barely had any body pain as yoga and stretches really helped me. I was active till the last day
*ii) How was your Instructor: *
Meenakshi is very sweet and has a very positive vibe. I have enjoyed each and every session with her.
iii) Postnatal /recovery phase experience:
I had normal delivery and the breathing techniques really helped me get by. just in 30 days post delivery, many people commented that I didn't even look like I had delivered. I felt active and healthy. I look forward to joining Meenakshi’s post natal sessions now as it has been 3 months

*i) How Prenatal Yoga helped: *
Joining prenatal yoga has been one of the best decisions of my life. Pregnancy can get really exhausting especially if you are in a nuclear setup. Yoga helped me stay calm, relaxed. That one hour session really instilled a sense of peace and confidence in me. Helped me accept the changes my body was going through beautifully. Also, my baby loved listening to the Gayatri mantra and stayed super active throughout the session.
*ii) How was your Instructor: *
Meenakshi has been a very strong support system for me. She has always been just a call away. In every session her positive affirmations really instilled confidence in me. Even though the sessions were online, she used to keep a close watch on everybody. She has always encouraged and motivated me and I am very grateful I found her.
*iii) Postnatal/ recovery phase experience: *
I had an emergency C section and my recovery was pretty smooth. Those 100 squats in the last few weeks really strengthened my body and helped in faster recovery.
The effects of yoga which I see in my daughter
As a new born she used to become calm listening to Gayatri mantra and all bhajans. Still loves listening to them
Since the time she began rolling over i catch her doing some or the other yoga pose

• Feedback for the session :
*i) How Prenatal Yoga helped: *
Prenatal yoga kept my body and mind fresh and relaxed. After every yoga session it made me feel so energized that I often forgot I was pregnant. The classes were so relaxing and calming. I found that the breathing exercises also helped me in keeping calm and in control of any worries or anxieties which I needed at that time to keep up with work pressure and daily life.
ii) How was your Instructor:
Meenakshi is a compassionate and intuitive person. She is truly grounded and gifted in what she does. Her gentle and warm approach made our sessions together feel easy and casual. She gave me lots of tips and information which I really needed as it was my first pregnancy. Even though it was online, she took care of every little alignment and corrected it. She talked to me 1 hour before I gave birth and helped me to keep calm and advised me to listen some mantras which helped me a lot. Thank you soooooo much Meenakshi for your love and care.
iii) Postnatal experience:
After my delivery the very next day I started walking slowly and not lying on bed all the time which helped me to recover quickly.

Self realization that there’s a life inside a life in Pregnancy
Often prenatal when they join yoga sessions they ask me to do some twisky-turvey asana. They find the flow of the session is too low which isn’t their mistake they have a habit of doing high volume exercise in the gym or intense yoga. So, first month pregnancy will be just normal as you won’t realize until you don’t miss your periods. Then 2nd and 3rd month I prefer not to take any prenatal on board as the baby is in the process of making. Also, pregnancy is not confirmed by that moment.
Start your yoga session’s by undertaking these points in mind:
a) Wait for 13th week to get over- As before this 1st trimester is considered as the most crucial part of the pregnancy wherein the baby’s body parts in making.
b) Wait for 3rd month of report to come- The ultrasound will confirm the pregnancy which is viable (can be seen) and can estimate the due date. It will also confirm how many babies the prenatal is carrying and will confirm whether baby is growing in the uterus and is not ectopic (growing outside the uterus).
c) Take a Green signal from gynecologist- This is something really important for both prenatal and the yoga instructor who’s undertaking the prenatal on board for yoga session’s. As the Gymea has the proper knowledge from the scratch about the
proceedings and the medical history of the Prenatal. Hence, it is very essential to consult the gynaecologist before you go further to take up any kind of activity.
d) Do your own Research and Analysis before joining any prenatal yoga classes.
You can ask these questions to your yoga instructor before you join them:
~ Whether the instructor is certified or not?
~ How much experience he/she has not in terms of years but in number of client’s he/she has catered. As this will tell you that you’re not a Ginny pig of the instructor.
I case you’re a prenatal yoga instructor and just completed your certification then start getting client’s whom you were teaching before they got conceived. Like that take the experience from 10-15 prenatal of your own circle then start exploring outside.
~ Trust the process- If you know the yoga instructor and he/she has just completed his/her certification then have faith in your instructor they may know your body well. If you don’t know the instructor then ask for a trial and then decide.
But it’s a request to all the prenatal’s not to combine or compare regular yoga/physical activity which you did when you weren’t pregnant.
Now as you know when to join the prenatal yoga session. Here, the question comes how to spend the remaining two months of the first trimester when we can’t to yoga or any physical activity apart from walking. So, my lovely ladies understand this first you’re not alone in this process now where you’re feeling bored,lethargic or fatigued. There’s one more life which is inside this life who’s thinking “What is this happening in my life?”.
Here are some techniques to relax your mind which you can do:
~ Go for a walk: As walking helps to boost your mind which increases blood flow and blood circulation to the brain and body. It has a positive effect on your central nervous system which is responsible for stress response in the body.
~Activity to do: Select any place which you like the most example shopping mall if it’s closer to your house, garden, terrace or office corridor where most the intellectual meeting take place and start walking as per your body capacity.
~Client experience: I remember one of my client from Johannesburg she never use to like to walk as she was living in a hill area the terrain was sloppy. As the session’s proceeded further I came to she likes shopping. So I suggested her to go to mall everyday as it was closer to her place. And to my surprise she loved this idea so much that she didn’t miss her walk even a single day.
~Read some spiritual books or motivational books: This may sound little not so interesting because if you’re not a book reader or spiritual person then let me tell you this is the perfect time to reunite yourself with that higher power.
~ Play some indoor games: You may think what is wrong with Meenakshi but trust me games like carrom, ludo, snake and ladder, business game or jenga etc can make your life easy.
