Summary

This trial aims to see if using a prenatal yoga app can improve the well-being of African American/Black pregnant women. Participants will use the Down Dog app for 12 weeks and wear a fitness watch

Who is the study for?
This trial is for African American pregnant women who are interested in using a prenatal yoga app to potentially improve their well-being. Participants should be willing to practice yoga at home for at least 20 minutes per day, three times a week, wear a fitness watch daily, and complete online surveys.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the feasibility of the Down Dog Prenatal Yoga App over a period of 12 weeks. It will evaluate how this app affects mental and physical health in participants and what cultural adjustments might be necessary for optimal use by African American pregnant women.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves practicing yoga through an app, potential side effects may include typical exercise-related issues such as muscle soreness or strain. However, since it's tailored for pregnancy, risks are expected to be minimal.
