VHS : Leisa Hart's FitMama: Prenatal Workout
An excellent workout that I used throughout my pregnancy, up to two days before delivery. As other reviewers have explained, it is broken into several sections so you can do as much or as little as you like. Very easy follow I am aware that FitMama has been criticised for being repetitive - this was a bonus for me as my brain went AWOL during pregnancy. A safe, enjoyable workout that produced a light sweat and I didn't have to think too much about it!

VHS : Denise Austin - Pregnancy Plus Workout
This video used to be the only one available for pregnant people. I have used it for three pregnancies, including my current one which is a twin pregnancy. The music is elevator Glori Estefan. Denise is a little too perky for the hormonal, the moves are dated and the costumes are ridiculous. That being said, it's great for begining exercisers or off days for those who are too tired for anything more intense. There are some weak toning exercises for the core and lower body after the 20 minute cardio segment. You could always put it on mute and listen to better music!

VHS : Quick Fix - Pre Natal Workout
I am 37 years old and 5 months pregnant with my 3rd child. I have exercised all my life though not always consistently. I just started this workout and completed all 3 workouts in one session and felt great afterwards. I have only been walking 3 to 4 times a week prior to receiving this DVD. My arms and legs were sore the next day but not too sore to move. I used 4lb weights in place of the water bottles she uses and had no problems finishing each exercise. The workout is lead by Nancy Popp who if any of you are Weight Watchers alumni... she leads the 3 pack of Weight Watcher DVD workouts. Obviously she is pregnant in this DVD and is clear and concise with directions as in her other videos. I don't find her annoying like Denise Austin or some of the others. I will continue to workout ... Read More

VHS : Kathy Smith - Pregnancy Workout
A few weeks ago I purchased two pregnancy workout videos - this one and the Jane Fonda pregnancy workout. In my opinion, the Kathy Smith video is better by far! The Jane Fonda video DOES NOT have aerobics on it, but is mostly stretching and strengthening and many of the moves were too advanced for me to do. The Kathy Smith video DOES have an aerobic section as well as individual leg, arm, and abdominal strengthening sections. The moves were not too difficult and I was able to do them the first time. I also appreciated the heart rate checks throughout the aerobic workout. These checks were able to reassure me that my heart rate wasn't going too high for the baby. I am very happy with this video, and I highly recommend it as a great overall workout for a pregnant woman!

I love this pregnancy workout. It is intense enough for me to break a sweat and short enough to do on the week days after work. It is easy to learn the moves. It has variety and funs moves.

VHS : Pregnancy Birth & Recovery
I have never been pregnant before, so I have never done this video, but I have watched it. My mom has done it before and she didn't like it. It looks okay, but it is almost as if Jane Fonda thought that as long as there were not any aerobics and no ab work, it would be perfect for pregnant women. First there is a workout for pregnant womwn and women recovering from pregnancy. Then there is an extra floor workout for women recovering from a pregnancy. Then a women named Femmy DeLyser shows you birthing tips and at the end of the video there is a section on baby care.

I own a variety of prenatal yoga dvds and this is one of my top 3. I have horrible sciatica in the pregnancy and nothing helps relieve the pain associated with the back of my leg, lower back as well as hip/joint pain like this dvd. There are a lot of easy and effective front bending postures which work to take the pressures off the areas pregnancy put pressures on. It's very easy to overstretch and hyperextend during pregnancy and this dvd does not leave room for those types of errors. I recommend it along with Shiva Rea's and "The Method". If you have sciatica your quality of life will be greatly improved by incorporating this into your prenatal lifestyle.

VHS : Kathy Smith - Pregnancy Workout
This is a GREAT pregnancy workout. Not to strenuous, not to easy. I was able to complete this workout until my 7th month (I got really huge). I even used this workout to loose the baby weight after the baby was born, but it can be annoying to workout with pregnant woman on the screen when your not pregnant!
I was in reasonably good shape before I started this program. May be too strenuous if your pregnant and starting from scratch.
I'd recommend this to any pregnant woman who wants to exercise. It will help you feel a lot better through your pregnancy!

VHS : Yoga Zone: Postures for Pregnancy
This would be good for someone who has never taken yoga before. I was slightly put off that a man was talking all about the poses that are beneficial to a woman's body during pregnancy and delivery. I doubt he has ever been pregnant so I find it hard to relate to. Plus there is no real flow, it does not feel like a full practice but rather how to do some basic poses. There were one or two poses that felt pretty good, but they are basic moves that you would probably find in any other dvd.
