The ladies at Purely Twins provide you safe exercises to do while pregnant. They also have a lot of recipes too: raw coconut cream chocolate bliss bars, no bake strawberry blueberry layered cheesecake, high fat protein energy almond butter chocolate chip bites . Every recipe always looks delicious but I haven’t tried many because they use ingredients I don’t always have on hand like coconut oil, cashews, or dates. However they’re still on my to try list.

Staying active during pregnancy (especially if its your first) isn’t easy and has you doubting.
You listed great resources (some of them I used myself when researching the needs for the Maternity Activewear brand we built ).
This helps to spread much needed knowledge and inspiration. ?
Dear Dana,
That’s so great you created a line of maternity wear for actively fit ladies. I’m glad you liked the resources.
