2FM star Jennifer Maguire has revealed she’s started pregnancy yoga – in a bid to deal with the pain of expecting.
The Republic of Telly presenter said she enjoys being around other women who are giving birth soon to chat about the “worst pain of your life”.
Now Jennifer, 34, has revealed in her Sun column that pregnancy yoga has become her coping mechanism.

She said: “I started pregnancy yoga this week and absolutely love it. It’s just nice being around other pregnant women and listening to their stories because, let’s face it, all the women of this world who have had kids are liars.
“Yep, it’s true. The hormone released after birth makes them forget EVERYTHING. From sickness to weird pains to the worst pain of your life.
“Yoga is great for a little time out. The techniques are a great way to help you cope with labour and ailments but I do enjoy the snooze at the end of a session.

“I’m thinking of starting a class that just involves snoozing. Skip the chats and stretches and go straight in for the kip at the end. I think it would be a huge hit with every mother and pregnant woman in Ireland.
“It’s amazing even being pregnant how much you value your sleep! I suppose we are just stocking up before the little ones come along and we don’t get any anymore.”
