What are the Ovia Family Awards?
Each year, we ask Ovia parents to nominate their best-loved products and brands and tell us why these picks made such an impact on their journey into parenthood. We analyze thousands of votes, pieces of feedback, and thoughtful recommendations to determine which best-of-the-best, tried-and-true products are worthy of an Ovia Family Award. When you see our seal, you know what you’re buying was chosen by parents who’ve used it, trust it, and can genuinely recommend it to other growing families. In this category, we’re giving awards for:
- Best prenatal vitamin
- Best workout clothes
- Best home fitness solution
For all our other winners, visit our Ovia Family Awards Hub.

Best Prenatal Vitamin: Nature Made
“It has all the needed vitamins and minerals that your growing baby and you need, without the price.”
Most expecting parents are well aware of the benefits of taking a prenatal vitamin, but which is the best? According to Ovia moms, Nature Made Prenatal Multi + DHA is the standout pick.
“Because of the iron included, I didn’t have to take an extra iron supplement, which was especially good when I could barely handle one pill with morning sickness.”
“It has DHA and EPA and is fairly priced. Especially the economy size..which is what you need…plus, there’s postnatal in the same brand.”
Moms appreciate that Nature Made prenatal vitamins are priced affordably. The brand also offers postnatal supplements, making the choice of what to take during the fourth trimester an easy one.
“These are the only prenatal vitamins I’ve ever taken that didn’t make me nauseated! They’re also easier to take because they’re softgel capsules, which makes them more comfortable going down.”
“For my first pregnancy, this was the only prenatal vitamin I was able to take. It was big but easy to swallow. I loved that it included DHA for the baby.”

Best Workout Clothes: Old Navy
“No muss, no fuss. Old Navy offers a wide array of styles and fits at the most affordable price point. I exercise 6 days a week, so affordable, comfortable, and well made athletic clothing is hugely important for me! From leggings and shorts to tanks and light outerwear, Old Navy is unbeatable.”
If you’re exercising during pregnancy, Old Navy has you covered with maternity activewear. You can find tops, bottoms, jackets, and more — all at very affordable prices.
“Value and longevity win here. I’ve had the same Old Navy workout pants since college (I’m now 36 and expecting my first!) and they still stretch and wear beautifully!”
“Why spend a ton of money on clothes you won’t wear much after baby? I loved my Old Navy maternity workout/loungewear so much because I never had to worry about maintaining them.”
From leggings, joggers, and yoga pants to workout tanks, performance jackets, and hoodies, Old Navy has it all. And did we mention how cute and comfy the maternity activewear collection is?
“Fashionable, affordable, and comfortable!”

Best Home Fitness Solution: Peloton
“The app offers tons of prenatal and postnatal workouts, and the bike is easy to navigate with low-impact options that you can do at your own pace.”
When it comes to at-home workouts, Peloton is a household name with a cult following. But the fitness offerings go beyond just a stationary bike.
“The prenatal yoga classes are so good! And all other workouts are offered at various levels so it’s easy to keep up with your workout routine while pregnant!”
“So easy to do from home. Not just a bike — tons of different workouts. Tons of motivation and different workout lengths so you can still get a great workout even if you only have 20 minutes.”
Ovia parents appreciate the array of home fitness options from Peloton. There are tons of classes to take from tread, bike, and yoga instructors. And you don’t need to have a bike or treadmill to access the workouts.
“I love that you don’t even need a Peloton to use this service. Their app is so easy to use and portable for a reasonable monthly fee.”
