Titali Asana : This is recommended to be done from first trimester. It helps in making your inner thighs and hips more flexible thus aiding in easy delivery of the baby.

Uttan Asana : This type of yoga is similar to squatting while sweeping floor. This also helps in making the pelvis more flexible. Hence they say sweeping is a great exercise.

I liked the tips by Surya about the yoga asanas.
But my only advice to the pregnant ladies is that, join a group and do yoga, though the pregie has do to some different yoga asanas and many are prohibited to them.Yoga helps to relax the mind body and soul so the pregnancy gets little easy and delivery ids than smooth.
