After trying multiple prenatal yoga apps (some dedicated, some just a part of their offering), I landed on Carry as my go-to app for pre- and postpartum yoga and meditation. I really enjoyed the authenticity of the instructors - they thoroughly describe movements and adjustments. Seeing real pregnant people doing the moves was also incredibly helpful. Their focused content based on trimester made finding exactly what my body and mind needed in that moment so easy - one less thing to stress over! And I really loved the variety of sessions - full flows for higher energy days, shorter sessions when all you can manage is 15 minutes, and focused efforts when your lower back is killing you. I only wish the great content continued further into the postpartum journey - I didn’t want to say goodbye!

I had this app recommended by a few friends and it does not disappoint. It’s straight forward, welcoming and easy to navigate to what I need in the moment. The yoga sessions are a nice way to keep up your activity and focus on your body. The meditation options were great for my mental health. It’s amazing how a few guided minutes of focus can make the daily stress fade. All of this contributed to a much more pleasant and manageable pregnancy and recovery after. The links to resources were also a big help. I used them frequently. Overall I find this app to be just what I need.

There are a lot of pregnancy apps for tracking baby milestones (“your baby’s the size of a papaya!”), aches and pains, weight gain, etc, but this is the first one I’ve found that really focuses on actually supporting me, the mom. It has yoga, stretching, thoughtful meditations and breathing exercises, and just feels like a hug when I use it. I also love how the images of moms show a range of bodies and backgrounds. I’ve only used it a few short days but already I’m trying to set aside “Carry” time for just me and I really look forward to my sessions. Highly recommend this app!

I love the motivation behind the creation of CARRY- to support all pregnant people in their pregnancies and postpartum time to feel empowered, to have easy access to accessible practices for all stages and days, and a soft place to land during this tender life phase. All of the teachers have such a passion for supporting folks in the perinatal time and bring so much practical knowledge and compassionate care to their offerings. I’m grateful to be included as a guide in these practices and wholeheartedly recommend people try it out.
