Fit Pregnancy workshops hosted in SA

30 Apr 2009

Fit Pregnancy workshops is in its fourth consecutive year, and will be hosted in Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town respectively. These workshops are aimed at expectant mothers and their partners with a focus on healthy mothers and healthy babies.

These workshops provide information that can be used and carried through birth, labour as well as afterwards.

This year's workshops plan to focus on nutrition, birth, finance, safe exercises for pregnant women, as well as the changes expected during challenges of parenting.

Guest speakers include:

Registered dietician and author of The Lean Aubergine and Skinny Snacks, Karen Protheroe. A mother of two, Karen will share insights into the natural increase of your energy levels as your baby develops and why healthy eating and weight gain will result in a healthy mom and baby.

Devorah Gruss is a midwife and childbirth educator who is known to tell it exactly like it is. Find out more about your birth options, including what both you and your partner need to know about labour and delivery.

Finance guru Anet Ahern is also the author of Becoming a mother - remembering your self. Ahern is set to share more on parenthood, relationships, sex and all sorts of changes you can expect with parenthood.

David Schmukler, the owner of Preggi-Bellies, guides participants through various safe exercises for pregnant women.

The day's activities include a full English breakfast, a fashion display, informative and empowering talks, giveaways and a goodie bag with free gifts and a 12-month subscription to Fit Pregnancy magazine.
