Pilates During Pregnancy, Vol. 1
Amazon must have received a bad batch of this program because both the original copy I purchased and its replacement were so severely scratched that I have now requested a refund. My best advice is to find another Pilates for Pregnancy program.

This DVD is not my favorite… It has little to no instruction and as my pregnancy has advanced, I am concerned about the amount of time spent on your back in this video and the amount of abdominal work. I have done Pilates pre-pregnancy and will continue post-partum, but this DVD is one that I felt was not worth while.

I have purchased many pregnancy videos. I found this to be one of the more challenging and safe workouts.
Rating: 5 / 5
Like some of the other reviewers, I found this workout to be lacking in a sufficient warm-up. I am very athletic (long distance runner, advanced pilates, and yoga) yet was in so much pain during the side series that I could barely finish. I didn’t feel like the exercises targeted the muscles, but I certainly could feel it in my hip joints. I thought it was just me until I read some of the other reviews. I won’t be using this DVD for my next pregnancy.

If you’ve never done Pilates I recommend not starting. I am an avid fan of yoga and decided to spice up my workouts while pregnant. I needed some change from one Pre-natal Yoga video and walking at the gym. Pilates was so painful and uncomfortable I had to stop less than half-way through. I was able to make it through the breathing/abs section but once I got to the floor section I was almost in tears. I recommend a good yoga video for your pre-natal workouts!
