So this is totally random but I have to say that I REALLY like prenatal exercise videos. Everyone is so positive about life and the exercise. I have other videos where the people range from positive (Leslie Sansone) to tough love (Jillian Michael's - FYI I like the workout I get from her video, but I don't particularly like her in the video. Being happy about working out is a HUGE thing for me and she's just more... well, herself than happy).
Anyway, I have two preggo videos in my collection.
Summer Sanders Prenatal Workout- LOVE this. I never used resistance bands before but now I really enjoy them. I like the talk between her and her sister-in-law personal trainer. Just a fun workout.
Erin O'Brian complete pregnancy fitness. This one is a shorter fix for me, but I still like it. There's also a couples workout on this that Aaron likes. It made me laugh because she says you can use anyone for the partner workout (i.e. mom, sister, friend, etc.). However, on some of the positions, Aaron and I looked at each other and said, "I don't know about you, but I would NEVER feel comfortable doing this with anyone other than a spouse." Don't worry, it's nothing horrible. Just more of a spooning position where you use the weight of your partner's leg as the resistance for leg lifts.
Anyway, I'm just saying that the positivity in preggo workout videos makes it a whole lot easier to want to get up and go even when I'm tired and tired.

Sounds fun! I've always wanted to try a prenatal exercise video... but they don't have them at the library or anything around here, and I'm always afraid to buy one sight unseen thinking it would be too easy/dull. So thanks for the review!
Good for you!!!! Are you still walking/running, or have you stopped doing that until the baby is born??
Britt, I go walking/running or the elliptical every other day. The elliptical works my butt so much I get off feeling like I've been clenching my bum for forever, hee hee. I can't run continuously for very long. My feet are hurting me more this pregnancy and She LOVES my bladder!
