Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am currently in my third trimester and tried Melinda's Pilates FOR Pregnancy for the first time. Based on the cover of the DVD I thought she (or someone next to her) would actually be visibly pregnant for this video. I am comfortable doing Pilates normally, but I felt her workout did not have enough modifications for the 2nd or 3rd trimesters when your belly is big enough to not be comfortable on your back. I have to fast forward through quite a bit of the video in order to get to the spine, leg and arm work. Should be great for your 1st trimester and part of your 2nd based on your proficiency with Pilates, but you'll have very limited use for it in your 3rd.
I also own Shiva Rea's Prenatal Yoga and have found this workout to be much more geared towards a pregnant woman. Shiva does her yoga along with two other women, each of them representing (and actually are in) one of the trimesters.
I had bought a Pilates DVD hoping to get a good back workout, not a workout on my back.
The workout for after pregnancy looks good so far. I am anxious to try it after I give birth.
