Can anyone recommend a good exercise dvd for pregnancy? I would prefer a workout one rather than yoga or pilates type, but this is mainly because i am not at all flexible so find yoga very hard but if it is a very very easy one, yoga or pilates would be ok!

Thank you!

i only have recommendations for yoga dvds as i am crazed about yoga. however, i noticed that the US version of Amazon has a much wider variety of pregnancy workouts dvds - most have detailed reviews. i found this very helpful and ordered 3 dvds there. the downside is that it took 2 weeks to get to london!

I bought this one which is really good, however as time went on in pregnancy the last thing I wanted to do after work was a workout so I never got round to using this much. At about 25 weeks onwards I started to get back ache etc so in fact a pregnancy yoga DVD is much more useful now as I am so achy all over all the time.
But if you are used to exercising before you were pregnant then you might be better at it than me!

Hi, I have been recommended a DVD made by the APPI which i ink stands for Australian Pregnancy Phsyiotherapists Institute. If you google APPI and the go under products and DVDs you will find a pregnancy one which is supposed to be a real help at getting ur body back in shape as well as with labour. I have only just ordered it so can't say how it will be.
It was £15.
