#FIT4MOM was founded upon the notion that mothers desperately need community, TLC, support, and a warm and welcoming pre and postnatal fitness environment. When our founding mama, Lisa Druxman, was a new mama, she needed all of these things for herself; and it has been her mission to bring this to moms, everywhere, ever since. This month, we celebrate our 300th franchisee . "Beyond the classes, my vision has been to create amazing career opportunities where women can integrate work and motherhood. That's why I am so very excited to see us reach our 300th franchise. Since 2001, I have found amazing inspiration, support, and strength when we come together in motherhood," says Lisa Druxman, founding mama at FIT4MOM . We sat down with our 300th franchisee, Jacqlyn Gill, of @fit4momlakeland, and asked her a few questions about motherhood and what it's like to be an entrepreneur and new member of the FIT4MOM franchise fam. Here's what she had to say... . read all about her on the blog • link in bio 📩

Genuinely curious how we used to pregame at 10pm to “go out,” when now that’s past our bedtime 🛌 Now we just want to go to Target and 💩 in peace ☮️ #motherhood #FIT4MOM

October 15th is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Read our heartfelt letter to you on the blog (blog.FIT4MOM.com | link in bio). These words are powerful below via @latchedla 👇🏼 . . . . “As mothers, we often feel incredibly connected to our babies from early pregnancy. It can be life shattering to lose a child, whether that child was born & lived a short while or only lived in your womb. It’s a struggle that many women suffer silently. If you are one of those women I’m sending you a so much love & want you to know that you aren’t alone. To help break the silence, I am sharing a little bit about my son, River. (Trigger warning: he passed away in utero & the story gives details about his passing. If this feels like it will be too much for you to read, you might want to stop here.) On March 12, 2016 I was 14 weeks pregnant with my third child. I had been bleeding lightly on & off for a few weeks, but had heard many stories about women who bled through pregnancy & went on to have healthy babies. I was hoping this was the case with my baby, too. That morning was different though. The bleeding was intensifying & I was starting to feel uterine cramps. By mid morning, I knew I was going to have a miscarriage. I spent the day crying in bed. I started having contractions late that night & labored till the early morning. I was surprised by the intensity of it all. I gave birth to River in my home with my husband by my side on the morning of March 13th. That day & the months that followed were by far my hardest. I had never felt grief so deep before. I wondered how life would go on without him, but somehow it did. As the weeks & months passed, it got easier. I was far along enough that most people around me knew I was pregnant, so I then had to tell them all that my son had passed away. I was surprised by the amount of women who said they also had a miscarriage. Or two. Or three. It breaks my heart to think of all the women who lose a baby & then mourn silently. If you you have lost a baby, you are welcome to share about him or her below. Sometimes it feels good to talk about our loved ones. “ Art by @shelley_illustration
