Fit Pregnancy Magazine

Pros: Fitness, health & nutrition information, how-to articles, baby/maternity product reviews, newborn care advice, Success stories
Cons: Bi-monthly, subscriptions take a long time to process

Since my daughter & daughter-in-law were expecting babies this *March, I was motivated to read my daughter’s recent back issues of Fit Pregnancy (FP). Although I wasn’t “expecting” too much useful information inside the covers, I...

Pros: A good, general-interest pregnancy magazine for women looking to have a healthy and fit pregnancy.
Cons: I am so sick of staring at perfectly made-up, lit, and airbrushed celebrities

One of the more humiliating aspects of being a woman (and believe me, there’s no shortage) is the annual gynecological exam. You may be a high-powered lawyer or senator or CFO in your normal life, but on this day you are humbled, dressing in an oversized...

Pros: positive portrayel of pregnancy
Cons: none that I can see

Note: this review is quite long so go grab a cup of tea (or PepsiOne in my case) and enjoy!


If you are someone who believes pregnancy should be considered a healthy, normal time of life, this magazine is probably one you will...

Pros: Informative, Entertaining, Timely, Stylish, Well-rounded (no pun intended)
Cons: If only all of us preggo women looked so perfect

I'll start by mentioning that this magazine has a policy to only include actual pregnant women in their photo layouts. In principal, I think this is wonderful. What I don’t like is that each of these models still display a too-good-to-be-true appearance....

Pros: Lots of expert contributors, makes pregnancy look glamorous
Cons: Price, Meals sometimes unrealistic

Who would have thought you could find a magazine that makes pregnancy look so beautiful?! I was unaware that so many celebrities who otherwise earn their livings by being beautiful would wind up in the pages of a publication while very pregnant. Then I...

Pros: Lots of info for expecting moms
Cons: Only 4 issues per subscription

I bought this magazine twice during my pregnancy. I thought it was a wonderful, helpful and informative magazine. Why did I only buy it twice? Because it only is published FOUR times a year! I kept waiting for the next issue to come to the grocery...

Pros: full of information for pregnancy
Cons: only 4 issues a year

I first saw this magazine when I was pregnant with our second child. I spotted it at the grocery store and quickly added it to the cart. Fit Pregnancy looked like a wonderful resource for pregnancy. I couldn't wait to get home and read it.

I...

Pros: An excellent source for staying fit and pregnant
Cons: Too few issues

I have always exercised and wanted to keep it up when I became pregnant. I never heard of the magazine prior my pregnancy but, I actually saw it in the gym I was going to. I was hooked immediately!!! I throughly enjoyed all the articles explaining how...

Pros: good articles, nice to have a magazine just for you while pregnant
Cons: not enough issues

I am going to have to agree with the general consensus here...a quarterly magazine for pregnant women is just not enough issues! That means over the course of a normal pregnancy you only get 2, maybe 3 magazines! Everyone who has ever been pregnant...

Pros: Concise articles, interesting topics
Cons: Thin magazine, marketing/advertising fills up a lot of space

How can someone be fit and pregnant? Okay, I know a few of us that strive to be fit... but really, the models on the pages make me want to sit down on the couch and watch TV. I wasn't fit to before I was pregnant. Now that I am pregnant and every move...

Pros: helpful exercise tips
Cons: lots of advertisements

This magazine was especially helpful during the early months of pregnancy. I loved the resources for stylish maternity clothes. Both the advertisements and the features provide information on where to find clothing and maternity items that helps a...

Pros: Great informative magazine
Cons: too few issues!!

This mag was a godsend through my pregnancy and I still read it. It gave me lots of informative articles and advice on all the different things I was going through. I saved the magazines and I still buy them when they come out because they are great for...

Pros: Caters to pregnant women and new mothers, good articles, great recipes
Cons: very thin for the price, only comes out 4 times per year

Being very pregnant, I don't enjoy reading Glamour or Cosmopolitan anymore. It just gets me angry, because right now my body isn't even remotely like anyone in those magazines. I was delighted to find a pregnancy magazine at our grocery store.
...

Pros: Very easy read
Cons: Only published quarterly

This magazine covers every topic from fitness during pregnancy to product rating. I was able to sit down and read it cover to cover. As a woman going through pregnancy for the first time I'm confronted with many books with a great deal of information...

Pros: health , beauty and fashion tips
Cons: too small

This is a magazine that I look forward to receiving with anticipation. Just when you are feeling frustrated by your body constantly changing a magazine offers realistic approaches to stay in shape and accept these changes. There are also lots of great...
