Some food for thought: 150 minutes a week for a single working parent/guardian who doesn't have their own transportation might sound a bit overwhelming. It's great that the activity planner takes into account pregnancy. But it might also be helpful to take into account more realistic time one can allocate to exercise and putting more focus on the "even 5 minutes has real health benefits". Like, "here are some quick exercises you could do while waiting at the bus stop" or "here's some mobility stretches that take less than 5 minutes"
