Shon Gables Productions LLC and The Mocha Manual Company,
Inc. announce the Mother’s Day release of The Mocha Manual to a Fabulous
Pregnancy DVD sold exclusively at Walmart and walmart.com on April 15th.
The Mocha Manual to a Fabulous Pregnancy DVD is the
first-of-it’s-kind, hip, and informative guide that turns your television into
the girlfriend every pregnant Black and Latina woman needs in maternity and
beyond—chock full of straight talking expert advice and mom-to-mom words of
wisdom.
Based on the top-selling and NAACP Image Award nominated book
The Mocha Manual to a Fabulous Pregnancy (Amistad/HarperCollins)
by Kimberly Seals Allers, the instructional video features segments on fitness,
medical matters, healthy eating, style, mental and spiritual wellness, family
finances, and newborn care. It is hosted by nationally syndicated television
host, Shon Gables.
With a team of experts and help from celebrity moms like
Spike Lee’s wife Tonya Lee, Grammy-winning gospel artist Deleon Sheffield, and
Rene Syler, television personality and author, moms-to-be have everything they need
to be fabulous in pregnancy and motherhood. Like a true girlfriend, expectant
women don’t want to pregnant without one.
“The DVD is down-to-earth, funny and chock full of
information that speaks directly to women of color,” says Gables.
“I’m proud to team up with Shon Gables to produce this
groundbreaking DVD to help reverse the tide of poor statistical outcomes for
births to Black and Latina women of all socioeconomic levels,” says Allers,
author and most recently former senior editor of Essence magazine. According to
the March of Dimes, black women are nearly twice as likely to have a premature
birth than white women. African American women also have the highest rate of
low birth weight babies, according to the CDC.
The groundbreaking DVD is prepackaged with a special Mother’s
Day coupon to receive one free 100% cotton infant Onesie and a discount on the
new mocha-flavored maternity collection at www.mochamanual.com. This makes the DVD the
perfect gift that keeps on giving to mom and baby.
Retail price: $9.96
