13 Pregnant Moms Who Lift, Run, and Sweat

There are a lot of mixed messages out there about expecting mamas hitting the gym, but a healthy and active mom leads to a healthy belly and baby!

A safe fitness routine looks different for every pregnant woman, so don't start a brand-new workout program once you're expecting without talking to your doctor about what makes the most sense for your body.
