The actor talked about the importance of exercising during pregnancy and mentioned that she took all the extra care with her husband and her trainer who were present with her while she was exercising.
Anushka mentioned that her doctor asked her to continue all the exercises she had been doing before her pregnancy barring a few, and she feels healthy and mentally fit while performing this routine. A part of the actor’s post on Instagram read, “As yoga is a big part of my life, my doctor recommended that I can do all such asanas that I was doing before I was pregnant( after a certain stage)barring twists & extreme forward bends, but of course with the appropriate and required support. For the Shirshasana, which I have been doing for many years, I ensured that I used the wall for support and also my very able husband supporting me balance ❤️, to be extra safe.” (sic)

While many doctors recommend exercising during pregnancy, it’s only advisable to talk to your doctor about the specific yoga asanas or postures that you have to be mindful of. Each pregnancy is different and it depends on the health of the mother to see how much stress and exertion she can deal with during this time. However, one should definitely include Pranayam, meditation, and lightly done Surya Namaskar in her routine.
