I am a 22 year old married girl, and I am going for Yoga classes for the past few months. My Husband and I have planned for my pregnancy next month. Is it advisable to do Yoga while Trying To Conceive? Will Yoga affect my chances of getting pregnant?

Yoga is supposed to be very good for increasing fertility, mainly because it encourages a healthy blood flow around the uterus and other reproductive organs. I've been doing yoga for a year while ttc and I've just gotten pregnant and will continue with yoga all the way through I hope. It's also really good for reducing stress, which is very important when ttc! The only thing my yoga instructor told me to avoid at the moment are deep twists but I'm also leaving out any strong core strength poses and deep back bends. I'm just not comfortable doing them.
