Must have for Pregnancy
I used this DVD nearly everyday of my pregnancy(first child). It is very relaxing provides just enough of the appropriate conditioning for someone who is preparing to give birth. The squatting pose felt a little silly to me, but I was so grateful for it during labor. My daughter was born with her hand on her head and her elbow next to her ear. I had to do some serious squatting to avoid a c-section, and I believe this DVD was essential in preparing me. My pregnancy was great - my weight gain was text book, I never had any back pain or any swelling, I did get some leg cramps, but only if I skipped a workout - I really think this DVD played a huge roll in how comfortable I was during pregnancy. When I was pregnant, I thought the fact that this comes from Crunch indicates it should be more challenging. Take my advice, when you're pregnant you don't need challenging you need relaxing. This DVD will help you maintain your physical fitness and prepare you for birth.

OK, but instructor is annoying
I wasn't crazy about this DVD. The instructor is very annoying. She makes suggestions about pregnancy and labor-related things, and giggles as she says them, like she's insecure about what she says so she can't act serious about it. I appreciated the variety of body types shown and that they had a woman doing the poses in a modified manner. I found the whole atmosphere to be too "hip gym", rather than relaxing, meditative yoga. I also found the workout to be too easy, with very little focus on the all-important Kegels. I much prefer Shiva Rea's yoga workout.

Waste of time
This DVD is hopeless, and too easy even at 40 weeks. You dont even get a basic stretch out of it. The instructor is so fake, it drives you mad. Definitely try another DVD.

Relieves Pressure...I love this CD
I started using this CD when I was about 5 months pregnant. The weight of the baby was starting to put a lot of pressure on the lower half of my body. I noticed that when I was consistent with the yoga, my back hurt less and the pressure was eased on my bottom...it even relieved the hemorrhoids! When I wasn't consistent, the back problems and the rhoids returned. I will say this, when I first tried this video, I thought it was kind of lame and that the moves really didn't do much for me...I was SO wrong. Although I love the CD, I did not rate it with 5 stars because it is a little slow and there's too much hippy talk. But I totally recommend this CD.

Wonderful way to keep relaxed
I just bought this DVD and loved it. If you are still maintaining a hard-core workout mentality, this is not the DVD for you. However, if you are accepting of your changing body and priorities, then this is perfect! The DVD shows you how to properly breath, relieves stress and aches/pains associated with an expanding body. Its focus on overall wellness during pregnancy, including listening to your body on a day-by-day basis. I use this DVD and also walk a couple of times a week and this combo has helped me stay healthy, properly gain weight and stay tuned to the miracle that is pregnancy.
