My Weekly Fitness Log — Second Pregnancy
I'm sharing this log in real time as I go through my second pregnancy — not a highlight reel, just what's actually working (and not working) week to week.
Birth Preparation
Tools, resources, and education to help you feel informed and ready for labor and delivery — from birth preferences to what to expect in the delivery room.
Breastfeeding Support and Sources
Postpartum Recovery
Designed to provide guided support for physical and emotional healing after birth.
Hormonal Health
Will help you understand your hormones and how they shape your energy, mood, and wellbeing.
Thyroid Wellness
Thyroid dysfunction is common postpartum but often mistaken for normal new-mom exhaustion. Left unchecked, it can affect energy, mood, weight, and long-term health.
Fitness & Movement Resources
Will help you find safe, stage-appropriate movement plans that evolve with your body.
My Favorite Resource for My Workouts During the Seasons of TTC, Pregnancy, and Postpartum
Postpartum Family Planning
Understanding your options for preventing pregnancy postpartum — before you're ready for another. Includes fertility awareness, LAM, and what to discuss with your provider.
Thriving with Hashimoto's
Hashimoto's is the most common cause of hypothyroidism — and it often goes undiagnosed for years, with symptoms dismissed as stress, "just motherhood," or normal fatigue. This pillar is for women navigating an autoimmune thyroid diagnosis alongside pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood.

Coming SoonMy Fitness Journey
Coming SoonA personal look at how fitness evolved through trying to conceive, pregnancy, and postpartum — what worked, what didn't, and what I wish I'd known.
This reflects my personal experience and is not medical advice. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or changing an exercise routine during or after pregnancy.

Meet the Founder
Maddie Karia
COTA | Health Informatics | Endurance Athlete | Mom
I'm a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant with a background in sports medicine and women's health, and I recently completed a degree in health informatics. I'm also a mom, an endurance athlete, and someone who's lived the gap Best You Mom is built to close — and right now, I'm building it while pregnant with my second.
My first pregnancy was genuinely great. I stayed active throughout and felt strong and supported the whole way. But postpartum was a different story. I didn't know what was actually normal and what wasn't. I didn't always know whether something called for a holistic approach or whether it was time to see a doctor. I got through it well, but only because I had the right people in my corner — and I think often about how differently things could have gone without that.
This time around, I'm approaching pregnancy with everything I learned, and building the resource I wish I'd had for what comes after. Best You Mom is grounded in real clinical knowledge, not generic wellness advice, meant to help you understand your body through every stage — from trying to conceive through pregnancy and postpartum.
This isn't a side project. It's personal, and I'm living it in real time.
We're building something meaningful.
Best You Mom is designed to help women understand, track, and advocate for their health through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. We're currently developing the platform and would love for you to follow the journey.
