I’m happy to share all of MY knowledge and beliefs on pregnancy and exercise, but I often find that pregnant women like to see (or hear) the research in writing, so I’ve gathered here some of my favorite resources for pregnancy – websites, books, audio books and podcasts. If I’ve missed a favorite of yours please share…
I get asked all the time about what pregnant women should keep in mind while doing cardio during pregnancy. These are the “rules” that I recommend following during all of your prenatal workouts, but especially while performing cardio exercises. Use The Talk Test Years ago (like in the 1980’s) the rule of thumb was that…
Yes, I have my birth story for you! Thanks to the many of you who asked for it and encouraged me to do it. Since most of you requested I do it via video, that’s what I did. The reason I didn’t do it right away, among obvious reasons (actually having the baby), is that…
Sponsored post by Baby Cubby Depending on the day, working out during pregnancy can be a challenging task. Reminding ourselves of the importance of exercise during this incredible journey always helps – from increasing our energy to keeping us strong to preparing us for a more efficient postnatal recovery.

I don’t know about you, but part of the reason I resist buying maternity wear is it feels like such a waste to spend a lot of money on clothing that you can only wear for a short period of time. That said, it’s nice to have pieces that are flattering as well as comfortable.…
It’s so important (and so challenging) to stay active when you’re pregnant and sometimes even more so in your postnatal recovery.

Here are…
Mother’s Day is just around the corner, so I put together a quick little fitness gift list that you can forward to whoever is doing the shopping for you this Mother’s Day . . . or perhaps YOU are the one shopping for another mom or in this case mom-to-be. (Coming up tomorrow and Friday…
I’ll be honest . . . I almost don’t know where to start with this. Plus, it just feels a little weird to be writing about this since I’m such an advocate for working out during pregnancy. For so long, when someone would ask me about whether a certain exercise was okay for pregnancy, the majority…
“I just can’t . . . “ This was pretty much all I thought and said during my first trimester this time around (I’m currently 23 weeks pregnant.). I’d order a salad . . . “I just can’t.” I’d try to push through a cardio workout . . . “I just can’t.” I’d try to…
If you’re obsessed with health and wellness like me, I’m sure you can’t help but receive notices everywhere for essential oils. I’ve had quite a few friends over the years who are super passionate about them, but I’ll be honest, I was skeptical. I did a giveaway with some and started using them and I…
