Bikram Yoga and TTC

Has anyone heard if this isn't a good idea?
Hot yoga while TTC?
Your core temp can go upwards of 99+.

It's definitely not a good idea once you are pregnant, but I'm not sure about while TTC.

I would ask your ob/gyn.

Re: Bikram Yoga and TTC

excellent idea.

Re: Bikram Yoga and TTC

I actually think this is why I got pregnant IMO. I was not TTC and had been told by my GYN/OB that I may have issues because of PCOS. I was doing hot yoga for fun for a couple of months and I was never relaxed more in my life.
I did have to stop immediately after finding out I was pregnant.
If anything it really gave me a great sense of relaxation if that is the only thing you get out of it.

oo, good to know, thanks pink.

i'm reading info all over the net that leads me to believe over-heating your body is not good for trying to conceive.

it relaxes me too! i love the way i feel after a class. so clean and as if i'd been gently nudged in my chakra ;)

Re: Bikram Yoga and TTC

Can I ask you where you take these classes?

Re: Bikram Yoga and TTC

sure, i go to a few studio's, two in Rockville Centre one on Park and the other on Maple. And one in Woodbury off Woodbury Rd. - it's far from me, but I do get more from it there.

i went yesterday and a migraine was born. i think it may not be the best thing for me right now.

i'm going to try another method of yoga.

Re: Bikram Yoga and TTC

I am trying hot yoga this morning. I need to relax and stretch.
