Keeping a strong core during pregnancy can not only help us during labor, but can also protect us from injury and prevent pain. The only equipment required for this prenatal core strengthening workout is one dumbbell and then an optional floor mat for comfort. This workout is great for mamas in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimester.
