Fit Pregnancy Workouts

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the Fit Pregnancy section of my website. Below you will find links to workouts and information that I shared during my pregnancy. Remember, before starting any workout program check with your doctor. Every pregnancy is different and your doctor knows what is best for your specific circumstances.

I was able to workout for the full 9-months, including a 5-mile walk the day that I went into labor. Below you will find links to a variety of workouts, fit pregnancy tips, and workouts that I used during my pregnancy.

I also have a great 6-Week Postpartum Workout series, and a specialized workout for Diastasis Recti when you are cleared for exercise postpartum.

Above all, listen to your body. Listen to your doctor & remember, exercise during pregnancy should benefit both mother and child. Do not be afraid to modify your workouts to suit your needs. If you ever feel discomfort, or like a workout is too hard that is a sign to stop or slow down. Don’t ignore your instincts.

Enjoy the workouts, and be sure to check out: Working Out in the First Trimester: What You Need to Know before getting started.

Congratulations on your little bundle of joy! I hope you find these workouts and tips useful. Stay safe and stay healthy.
