Here are a few of my favorite workouts for this uncooperative pregnant bod of mine. These are the exercises that I notice the most pain and stiffness relief from.

1. Squat with overhead press (arms/legs/butt)
2. Plie with lateral raise (arms/legs/butt)
3. Opposite arm/leg reach (back/abs)
4. Plank (core)
5. Tricep dips (arms)
6. Lateral leg rotations (legs/butt)
7. Dead lifts (legs/butt)
8. Exercise ball leg lifts  (legs/butt)
9. Wall sits with exercise ball (legs/butt)
10. Hip raise (core/legs/butt)
11. Cat and Cow(core/back)
12. Exercise ball stretch (pelvic floor muscles)
13. Yoga (everything)

You should only use these workouts if your body is used to working out. Do NOT start working out during a pregnancy, and follow your doctor's instructions.
