Asanas that give pressure on Abdomen should be avoided. It would be best to Practice, Bhadra Asab, Upavesana, Veer Bhadra Asan, Setu Bandh Asan, Vakra Asan lying on the floor, Ardh Hala Asan with wall support, Anulom Vilom Pranayama all this will be very benefical to a pregnant women.

Only savasana is a safe posture for a pregnant woman. And why you want to do asana during pregnancy? Try pranayam and other relaxing methods.

It depends upon the pregnancy period. Usually after 3 months we must avoid physically challenging asanas like Surya Namaskar and others.
