Mothers, Carolina Gunnarsson, and Joanie Johnson created the new Pregnancy Fit Club, after seeing a much-needed gap in the market, and being afraid to exercise during their own pregnancies. Gunnarsson explained to WTOP, that she had gained more weight than planned simply because she didn’t have a  safe space to work out during pregnancy.
