Anyone here do prenatal yoga? Considering starting since I just hit 16 weeks. Plus if you have any favorite places to recommend. Based in Chicagoland.

Yes! I did prenatal yoga and it was so helpful for me to stretch out my limbs as they started to carry more weight. I don’t have any places to recommend, but I will instead really recommend the app Down Dog. They have a prenatal version and you can customize almost every aspect of your session: skill level, duration, trimester, area of body to focus on, flow type, music, instructor, etc. It’s awesome and flexes based on your needs and trimester!

Second this. I’m a yoga teacher and down dog is excellent.

Yes, love it. I go to a place in Wicker Park that offers a few prenatal-specific sessions a night.

Random thought. I would describe the tiredness you feel in pregnancy like a heavy stone tied to you that just drags you down and you’re too tired to care or try to fight it.
