I'm 14 weeks at the moment and still going to my normal pilates class. However, my teacher isn't being that helpful and has just advised me to not do anything that feels uncomfortable. I was wondering that your experiences are out there? Have you been advised to do more of/less of specific exercises?

I'm particularly interested if anyone has expertise in separated abdominals (daistasis rectis). Mine separated a lot after DD, but I'd managed to get them back to 2 fingers apart before this pg was conceived. Are there exercises I should specifically avoid now to avoid them separating too much again? What can I do to encourage them to stay together that is safe to do in pg?

I also have SPD, but the pain is a pretty good indicator or what not to do there!

Oh yikes, check out the Pilates thread on the 'Childbirth' topic! Haven't read it all but the subject line looks like it would be useful for the OP.

(sorry if someone has already mentioned this, am trying to get lunch into a reluctant DD whilst reading MN!)
