Meet Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise Specialist Milly

When it comes to training pregnant and postpartum women, it's so important to be updated and educated.

It's not just about what you can and can't do with exercises. Pregnancy exercise is so much more than that.

Our graduates come out of our Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise course qualified and confident.

We love sharing their success, and here is another amazing graduate. It's time to meet Milly!

What is your current profession and where are you based?

I am an exercise physiologist with a specialty in corrective exercises and prenatal training. I am based in Fairfield, CT, USA.

Why is helping pregnant and postpartum women so important to you?

Strength training throughout pregnancy can significantly improve postpartum experience. Motherhood teaches you that you can only control so much and feeling strong and being stable in activities of daily living is so empowering and beneficial for mental health.

What did you enjoy most about the PregActive Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise Course?

I love the case studies and learning about real life experiences.

What do you plan to do now you are a Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise Specialist?

I would love to start some online based communities where woman who are in similar phases of pregnancy and postpartum can connect about their fitness journey with me guiding and leading them as a group.

What would you say to a newly pregnant Mama-to-be who is nervous about starting exercise?

Action creates motivation and there is a place to start for every individual.

What supportive words would you say to a new postpartum Mother to help her get started with her exercise?

Any exercise you can find time for will benefit you as an individual and as a mother. You will be the best version of yourself to help and be active with your child.

Start training now to put yourself in a position to be the best grandparent you can!
