There's no need to be scared of abdominal and core exercises during pregnancy, as long as you're doing the correct exercises in the correct way. Rather than making abdominal separation worse, core exercises can actually help reduce the size of diastasis recti as well as assist in managing/preventing low back and pelvic girdle pain. This video teaches basic deep abdominal activation and builds on this with 4 safe core exercises for pregnant women.
Belly Strong is one of the best free online prenatal exercise programs out there. You’ll find prenatal workouts for the first trimester, second trimester and third trimester all in one place. They are a great way to guide you through exercise during pregnancy.

Just a note that this video is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis or individual medical advice, and you may benefit from seeing a professional for an individual diagnosis and treatment program if you are experiencing any issues from diastasis recti.
