I never posted a comment before but you deserve positive feedback. I followed you through out my pregnancy last year 2017 and it's because of your workouts I was able to do a natural birth with no epidural. I'm 34 weeks pregnant now and I have continued with your workouts with this pregnancy as well. Thank you for the new ones you posted. I hope you know you are a blessing to many women who seek a healthy and active pregnancy. God bless you and your family.

[@jacquelineshealy-randall4630]

Amen to that!!!

[@jessier2355]

Any advice for a natural birth? You had such a sweet comment. Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@kimberlie672]

That's amazing!!

[@jaciemokidm609]

​@@jessier2355 Dates soften the cervix and speed up delivery. Mother Mary was crying of pain as she was delivering Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him. God comforted her and gave her water and a date tree to ease her labor. It is written in scripture, perhaps you won't believe. But I ate dates in my third trimester and even took them to the hospital with me. The staff were amazed that it was my first baby, my water had just broken before going to the hospital, and I was already 6cm dilated. A fast labor, no epidural, and my son was born 9 lbs, 9 oz, praise be to God!

I so appreciate all your work! I love waking up to see what workouts are lined up for today. You have made so so much content, and it makes your clients' work so enjoyable and always exciting! I'm on my fourth pregnancy in 4.5 years, and I'm enjoying this immensely. Thank you!!

[@catherinearias8615]

Love your videos Ashley! I’ve done the prenatal plan once, the postpartum plan once and now I’m repeating prenatal for my 2nd pregnancy. Thank you so much for all you do and your inspiring words. You make me want to be a better mom. I actually really love the way you talk about “targeting the muffin top” and other helpful visuals. It gives me motivation and really helps me understand what area I’m strengthening. God bless you :)

[@KatieCalifornia]

I have been enjoying your workouts so much. Especially when we get to use a stability ball. I’ve worked out regularly for two years and had never used one until recently.

[@ianainmorocco3234]

M'y third pregnancy with you. And also after, programme of post pregnancy, every time. So glad that I found you from thé beginning. It helps me a lot and save m'y time. Also you inspire me of being in good physical conditions and having 4 kids . Bravo and thank you so much

[@marybethkipperberg8582]

Hi, Ashley. I absolutely love your workouts. After trying all pregnancy to find challenging but safe workouts, I was so happy to find you! I am currently 38 weeks and still doing your videos at least a few times a week in between walking. Personally, I would love to see even more No Equipment workouts as I am in a small apartment on a small budget. This workout and your Best Prenatal Booty Lift are two of my favorites! I am excited to follow your plan all the way through next pregnancy!

[@robyngeetucker2409]

I am so thankful for this workout program!!! I am a dancer and mom of two and I needed to do a workout program that would be safe for pregnancy, keep me in shape, and also compliment the dance schedule I’m attempting to maintain. 30 weeks and counting. Thank you!!!!

Well done xxx

[@Mescuadra07]

Thank you for your workouts Ashley. I feel so great, less fatigue and my energy has increased! However, on the last exercise the “muffin top” I had a hard time lifting my legs because I felt soreness around my groin area, especially when I try to do side planks and lifting the leg😅😩 those kill. Is that normal to feel that discomfort?

[@glowbodypt]

Marisol, Don't worry! What you are describing sounds symptomatic of round ligament pain. It's most common in 2nd trimester and early 3rd, but often goes away by week 36. If *anything ever feels hurt* during pregnancy, just skip or modify that move! You have high levels of relaxin hormone right now -- this is what allows the pelvis to open for vaginal delivery -- however it indiscriminately effects ALL THE JOINTS in your body. This can lead to a whole host of "weird pains" you don't experience when you aren't pregnant.

[@jessicaflynn4239]

I truly hope this helps me come back! I travel a lot for work and am on video, photos, a LOT, and it’s hard to look at knowing I still have 12 weeks left 😬🥹 this third one is taking its toll. Bless you for the consistent motivation and positivity 🙏🙏🙏

I just want to say thank you for the time and dedication you have put into your videos. I'm expecting my first child and I have hated working out but ever since I have found your channel I have made it a routine to come on and work out to several of your videos. Before I found your channel I was having horrible back pain and I can truly say that it is because of these work outs that the pain has slowed down. Thank you so much again and keep up the hard work because it is helping women. God bless you and your family!

[@glowbodypt]

Wow this is so inspiring to hear from you that your back pain has ACTUALLY REDUCED during your pregnancy with your first child while following my workouts. I am thrilled that you are learning to enjoy exercise now because it is one of the healthiest things you can do for yourself and for your baby during pregnancy! I Hope you'll come over on Instagram Nataly so I can get to know you on there too!! @glowbodypt

I love your workouts!! I've been following your prenatal workout scheduled since I found you - about week 12. I am currently 28 weeks with baby #4 and it's definitely my healthiest and most fit pregnancy! Even though I am technically "advanced maternal age" at 36 years old, I feel the most comfortable and in shape of any of my pregnancies - which I totally attribute to your workouts as well as much healthier eating this time around. I hope to use your postpartum plan this time, too. Thanks so much!

Is this recommended when following the plan or is it optional if you are doing this video as a one-off only?

That's only for women who randomly stumble upon the video on youtube and do it on it's own. You should stick exactly to what I prescribe in my Free Prenatal Program because it's carefully curated for each week of pregnancy with adequate volume and weekly split all figured out for you. : ) Congrats to you Courtney and thank you for the opportunity to be your trainer. - Ashley

How many times a week can you do this workout?

Caitlin, It's Ashley. Congrats on your pregnancy. I admire your motivation to want to do this routine frequently. I recommend no more than ONE time per week. You do not want to overtrain your obliques in 2nd and 3rd trimesters specifically. This can cause a pull on the rectus abdominis (6 pack), exasperating Diastasis Recti during pregnancy (ab gap). I'm all about ensuring you have an extremely healthy core during pregnancy so we can accelerate an easier postpartum recovery healing your ab gap postpartum.

I don't really have a stability ball, but a slightly smaller child's ball with a handle. It's seemed to work decently for these types of workouts; but I do sit lower on it. Is it a concern if my bum is below knee level whilst sitting on the ball? It dips down, but seems to be perfect in other moves.

I’ve been enjoying the prenatal workouts, however the way you talk about women’s bodies in hateful, misogynistic ways is really disturbing. This should be about being strong emotionally and physically as we prepare to enter this next phase of life. Treating women’s bodies as show pieces that need to look a certain way in order to be culturally acceptable is immature and sad. Be inclusive and less hateful. No more “muffin top” (the best part of the muffin) and arm jiggle comments. Thanks.
