A few examples from @juna.moms labor prep workout in the Juna app! This is great to start incorporating into your routine during the 3rd trimester.
You wouldn't run a marathon without physically prepping, labor is no different.
1) Supported Wall Squats. Use a yoga ball or exercise ball to support you as you go into a deep squat. Hold for 3 seconds at the bottom and push through your heels back to the top.
2) Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and lean into an exercise ball, with your bump just below the ball. Rock side to side.
3) Kneel on the ground with your weight draped over the ball, allowing the ball to push on the top of your belly.
4) Hip Circles. Sit on the exercise ball and make a circle to the right with your hips for 30 seconds. Switch directions for another 30 seconds.
There is a full ""mobility"" section within Juna, which includes stretching, foam rolling, and breathing exercises to help minimize your pain and prepare you for labor. Check the link in their bio for a free 7-day trial.
