Prenatal Yoga...Yay or Nay??

I just completed a half hour of prenatal yoga and I must say I wish I had been doing this the whole time!  I'm trying a 30 day free trial at DailyBurn.com and it's not too shabby.  They recommend yoga blocks and a bolster which I thought I'd be fine without, but I was wrong.  Some of the poses need the blocks and bolsters to best accommodate the body and growing belly so you're not on your back.  I'll definitely be picking those up as well as a couple more prenatal yoga DVDs to add some variation.  I'm excited to add this to my weekly routines.  I really feel that it will be extremely helpful in preparing for my delivery emotionally, mentally and physically.  After all, natural child birth from what I hear can be a beautiful experience so I want to make EXTRA sure that I'm feeling comfortable with my body, my inner-self and my connection with my son so that it can be beautiful.

Has anyone else done yoga during their pregnancies??  Did it help?  Any favorite poses or DVDs that you recommend?

Hope everyone has had a wonderful start to their week!!

P.S. Here's a link to that site in case anyone wants to check it out.  I haven't explored the site quite yet but apparently they have all different kind of workouts on there.
