Week 27
Prenatal Online Exercise
Hello There!
At this stage in your pregnancy..
Baby size: bunch of lettuce. Your baby's bones are now mature enough to start producing their own blood supply from their bone marrow, taking over this task from their liver and spleen.
Week 27 marks the beginning of the third trimester, congratulations! As your baby grows your uterus pushes up under your rib cage and your abdominals pull from the front, often causing pain and discomfort. Watch our Rib Pain education video with Millie and have a read of our PDF for further information on causes and management strategies.

This Week’s Spotlight
Get the lowdown.
Crab Walks
This exercise will challenge your glute, deep abdominal and pelvic floor strength, while improving your overall coordination and stability. Choose whether or not you would like to use a resistance band around your knees to increase the difficulty of the exercise.
High Kneel Plus Theraband
Once you have found your neutral or centered spinal position, we then engage through core muscles and do theraband exercises. While it is your arms moving, the focus is on maintaining your neutral position and in that way strengthening your deep stabilising muscles.
Spikey Ball Release
Are you wondering what to do with your spikey ball? Millie talks you through some great muscle releases that you can perform with a spikey ball (or even with a tennis ball) to reduce back and pelvic pain, release tension in the feet and more.
Rib Pain Educational Video
Millie talks you through rib pain in pregnancy- the causes, the sensations and the management strategies. Don’t forget that this class is stored on our resources page so you can access it any time.
