A massive thank you to Kelly for joining us to chat about safely running during pregnancy and postpartum!

This ask an expert video introduces the wonderful Kelly Vigil! She is an experienced runner and running coach. She is also mum to now 3 beautiful children. Kelly attempted to run throughout both of her previous pregnancies but did not make it as far as she would like and stopped at 30-32 weeks. She comments that this is due to lack of research into the different needs safely running during pregnancy requires. After gathering more information, the third time around Kelly is continuing to run despite being 38 weeks pregnant in this video. How brilliant! Watch along to hear the tips Kelly talks about to improve comfort during running and prolong your capacity to do so safely throughout your pregnancy…

Going through IVF or preparing to do so and concerned about keeping fit, Mamma? FittaMamma chats with the marvelous Lottie who shares her IVF journey and active pregnancy advice!

Lottie is currently 31 weeks pregnant with her second IVF baby and chats to Alex about her journey and how she’s remained active during pregnancy. We have received so many questions and messages from Mamma’s who are preparing to or going through IVF. We thought the best way of answering those queries was to ask an expert who has been there and done that!

Every pregnancy is different so please do not hesitate to talk to your doctor or midwife if you have any concerns about the health of your baby or how you should stay active. We share Lottie’s story to provide information, inspiration and reassurance.

Lottie has kindly also taken part in our brilliant Sunday Sessions! If you would like to watch and follow some of her workouts, there is the Pregnancy Cardio Warm Up, the 45 Minute Prenatal Barre Workout, and the Prenatal Dance Workout. Happy active pregnancy, Mamma’s!
