Fit and Fabulous Pregnancy Re-Launches On-Line Pregnancy Exercise Program Designed to Keep Moms Fit, Sexy and Strong

Irvine, CA, December 21, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Most pregnant women would like to be fit and sexy. In the past that dream has been one that many women are afraid to pursue. For centuries, moms-to-be have shied away from smoking, drinking alcohol, eating fattening foods and even going to the gym for fear that strenuous exercise could harm their babies.

But thanks to a revolutionary on-line fitness program, pregnant moms can now receive all the tools and knowledge they need to stay more fit and healthy through the duration of their pregnancy than ever before. "More than ever, women want to do all they can to make sure their unborn child is as healthy as possible in the womb while keeping their bodies as healthy as possible, too," says Rebecca Davison, founder of Fit and Fabulous Pregnancy. "Our program not only can increase the health of the child but also makes mom happier and healthier by providing all the necessary information to help her body through the pregnancy experience."

Davison, a certified personal trainer with an emphasis in prenatal training from the National Academy of Sports Medicine, is uniquely qualified to offer this novel health and fitness regime. But it was more than her experience as a personal trainer that led her to develop Fit and Fabulous Pregnancy. She says it wasn’t until she was pregnant and began researching information on fitness that she discovered there is very little information for women who want to workout safely and effectively during their pregnancy. "I'd been a personal trainer for years, but after I became pregnant I realized that I didn't know how to train myself during my prenatal months," she explains. "But what I discovered was that pregnancy does not have to be the end of anyone's quest for a fit, healthy body and that pregnant bodies are really quite amazing and strong. And staying in shape through the full nine months will pay big dividends to the health of the mother and her baby."

Benefits Abound
According to Davison, there are numerous ways the Fit and Fabulous program helps pregnant women and benefits their unborn baby.

For the mother, some of the benefits include:
• Increased energy and stamina
• Improvement in mood and alleviation of stress
• Decrease in backaches and swelling
• Better sleep
• Prevention or treatment of gestational diabetes
• Reduced constipation and bloating
• A strengthened posture
• Quicker recovery to getting back "in shape" post partum
• Better muscle tone and strength
• Improved fitness of heart and lungs

For the baby, some of the benefits include:
• Being more comfortable late in the pregnancy
• The ability to better tolerate the stress of delivery
• Being born leaner and healthier

"Studies have shown that the stimulus of exercise may accelerate the development of the baby's brain while in the womb," Davison says. "So a healthy and fit mom could very well mean a healthier and fitter baby."

"In a nutshell, Fit and Fabulous Pregnancy offers a blueprint for a healthier and happier pregnancy – before, during and after. The days when women were too scared or uninformed about working out during pregnancy are over." Davison says.
