According to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (ACOG), all women who are pregnant without complications should be encouraged to participate in aerobic and strength-conditioning exercises as part of a healthy lifestyle during their pregnancy. Physical activity does not increase your risk of miscarriage, low birth weight or early delivery. With that being said, it’s still important to discuss exercise with your OBGYN or provider during your early prenatal visits or when beginning Mission Motherhood.

It’s recommended that you drink plenty of water before, during and after your workout to ensure you’re well hydrated when you’re exercising. It’s also so important to continue listening to your body throughout your pregnancy, and stop exercising and immediately notify your healthcare provider should you experience any worrying symptoms or complications.

The benefits are truly endless! Enjoyment, stress relief, increased energy, improved sleep, reduces back & pelvic pain, eases constipation, may decrease your risk of gestational diabetes, preeclampsia and cesarean birth, promotes healthy weight gain during pregnancy, improves your overall fitness, strengthens your heart and blood vessels, helps encourage a healthier and smoother labor, delivery and postpartum experience overall, increases your ability with the physical demands of motherhood & creates healthy habits life-long.

Each Mission Motherhood workout is about 20 minutes in length and will begin with a demo and dynamic warm up. You can expect a new, fresh, fun and challenging workout every time you press play as not one workout is repeated. The workouts will require minimal space and equipment such as dumbbells, our resistance band, a folding chair— and some workouts will be bodyweight only.

You will need at least one set of dumbbells ranging from 5 to 15 lbs (depending on your fitness level.) For best results, two sets are recommended, one pair that is lighter and one that is a bit heavier (for example, a set of 5’s and 12’s) as well as a folding chair. Mission Motherhood members will also receive a cloth band in the mail. (Not required for the Begin Again Postpartum program.)

We do not offer refunds. We do however offer a free trial so that moms can have a peek inside of Mission Motherhood prior to signing up. With that being said, if there is an unforeseen event within your pregnancy, please contact Stephanie to discuss 1-1.

According to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (ACOG), Ideally, pregnant women should get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity every week. Moderate intensity means you are moving enough to raise your heart rate and start sweating. You still can talk normally, but you cannot sing. There are no “heart rate” guidelines anymore - “Moderate Intensity” is what is best recommended.

Mission Motherhood features workouts for all fitness levels. Whether you are brand new to fitness or exercise has always been part of your life, these workouts will meet you where you’re at and match your energy levels / schedule each week of pregnancy. At the beginning of each workout, Stephanie goes through a demo that explains various options and modifications that you can take to have YOUR best workout. After the demo, Stephanie moves into a dynamic warm up before the workout begins. Please know that your body is your best guide. You will know you’re at a good exercise intensity level when you can talk normally (but cannot sing) and do not become exhausted too quickly.

Of course it is. Mission Motherhood is a safe place for all women as Stephanie is also “1 in 4” and she would love to be a resource of encouragement and strength to you during this time. Though miscarriage is more frequently talked about… navigating pregnancy after loss is not. Inside of Mission Motherhood, you will find Stephanie’s own real, raw and personal Miscarriage testimony video that she prays touches and connects with your heart. Please know that you are never alone. Stephanie truly believes that movement and community will help to restrengthen and heal your mind and body.

You are right on time! Mission Motherhood offers a handful of different options to join in whatever trimester you are currently in. Please don’t forget to explore the "Begin Again" Postpartum program to set yourself up for success in your “4th Trimester” as well.
