Body Changes During Pregnancy

Learn what physical changes to expect during pregnancy—from pelvic floor shifts to posture and mobility—and how to feel strong, supported, and informed.

Understanding Body Changes During Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time of incredible transformation—and that includes your body. As your baby grows, your body adapts in powerful ways to support pregnancy, labor, and recovery.

But many of these changes aren't discussed in typical prenatal visits. That’s why this video, featured in our Childbirth + Postpartum Course, helps you understand what’s happening and how to support your body throughout pregnancy.

What Happens to the Body During Pregnancy?

From pelvic floor shifts to posture changes and joint mobility, your body is constantly adapting to carry and nurture new life. In this video, we cover:

  • Common physical changes during each trimester
  • How your core and pelvic floor are affected
  • Tips to stay strong, supported, and comfortable

This kind of insight can reduce fear and help you feel more empowered—especially when combined with movement, support, and expert guidance.

Your Body Is Powerful. Your Education Should Be Too.

Understanding how your body works during pregnancy helps you prepare for labor, birth, and recovery with confidence. Whether this is your first pregnancy or your third, it’s never too late to learn something new about your body.
