The Pilates for Pregnancy application is broken into 3 different workouts that have been modified to meet the needs and limitations of each trimester. You can buy each trimester workout separately or buy all three at once and save. This 3rd trimester workout includes exercises that are beneficial and safe for a woman in her 3rd trimester of pregnancy. At this stage in pregnancy, the weight of the uterus and the stretch of the abdominal muscles make modifications that avoid back lying and abdominal strain necessary. Focus shifts to legs, butt and arm strength and back relaxation. Each exercise comes with clear pictures, explanations, plus a “details” page showing you the benefits and goals for your pregnant body.


Pilates for Pregnancy is more than an exercise application. It is also a complete pregnancy planner, photo album and journal with navigation buttons for pictures, to do lists and notes.

When you tap the Photo button and you can store scanned sonogram photos and pregnancy pictures. There are even some ideas of photos you may wish to take to create a pregnancy photo memory book.

Tap the To Do button see a list of tasks to take care of during your 3rd trimester. They are broken into daily and long-term goals. As you accomplish something on the list, tap on it and the item will get a check mark next to it. On daily goals the check mark will disappear the next day, otherwise it will remain checked off. You can even add you own items to this list.

Tap on the Notes button and a page will open up for you to take notes during a doctor’s appointment. Remember a question you want to ask or store test results. Some questions are already on the notes page to help guide you but you can easily add your own journal entries. For instance, you can keep track of nursery ideas or baby names as soon as you think of them. Use it for whatever you like!
