This Mom Continued Acroyoga During Her Pregnancy

Meet Lizzy Tomber, a new mom who redefined boundaries during her pregnancy.

Tomber stayed active and practiced acroyoga, a form of acrobatic yoga, for the majority of her pregnancy. She stopped doing the yoga just four days before her due date.

As Dr Seuss said to his little one: "'It's a scrumptulous world and it's ready to greet you, And as for myself … well … I can't wait to meet you!" Thanks @michelle_yogogirls for capturing these moments as @acropediaorg and I wait to meet @acrodavid Big thanks as well to @ingridandisabel for the great prenatal pants

She even dared to do the tricky poses during the last months of her pregnancy, balancing upside down on her husband’s hand just weeks before she gave birth.

I feel so lucky to have had a healthy and happy pregnancy so far and a partner who is so supportive (physically in this picture and emotionally all the time) 31 weeks and my Acro and yoga practice still feels great! 9 more weeks of very unique strength training left :)

Together Tomber and her husband, Josh Young, travel the world and teach the acroyoga. The couple are currently preparing for their around-the-world trip in Washington D.C., where they have incorporated their newborn into the poses.

Thanks to @yogogirls for my first photo shot! I can't wait to fly more

“He’s been doing acrobatics since before he was born,” the 33-year-old mother told ABC News. “He’s just holding up his own neck, so we’re not rushing it, but hopefully he grows to love doing acrobatics.”

But don’t worry, Tomber got the all-clear from her doctor to practice acroyoga during her pregnancy.

Does this Tuesday make me look fat?! Happy Madri Gras y'all Thanks @michelle_yogogirls for capturing one of my last Acro sessions with @acropediaorg as we wait for the arrival of @acrodavid

“My doctor was really awesome and said, ‘If you’re comfortable and this is what you do on a daily basis you shouldn’t stop doing it,’” Tomber explained.

Tomber first discovered acroyoga when she was 25. After falling in love with the sport, she left her professional job to pursue her hobby full time with Young.
