South San Francisco, Calif., January 7, 2010 – Future US, the special-interest media company, today announced the new magazine, “Mom,” a quarterly publication that’s filled with practical information to support, validate and empower today’s moms.

Produced by the editorial team of “Pregnancy” magazine, each issue of “Mom” features a 25-page special section from the Hot Moms Club (www.hotmomsclub.com), a top brand with its pulse on what’s hip and new for moms. “Mom” offers real-life how-to tips for busy moms, must-have style and product reviews, relationship, fitness, and home advice as well as community resources and celebrity interviews. The first 100-page issue will also be supported by fashion, beauty, gear, celebrity content, and more on the website, www.Mom360.com, an extension of www.Pregnancy360.com.
“The community and trust that we’ve built with expectant mothers now has a perfect home with ‘Mom,’” said Abigail Tuller, Editor in Chief of “Pregnancy.” “Our tag line, ‘A happy family starts with you,’ is the foundation of the magazine’s content, reminding us of the vital role moms play in the world. Everyone with kids knows, when mom’s happy, everyone’s happy.”
“In times like these, we feel very fortunate to be experiencing growth,” states Debbie Klett, “Pregnancy” magazine National Director of Sales and Business Development. “We are also honored to be sharing the benefits of our success with our partners and advertisers by investing in our brands in 2010.”
“Our partnership with ‘Mom’ magazine is a perfect fit for the Hot Moms Club brand,” said Jessica Denay, Hot Moms Club founder and author of the “Hot Mom Handbook” series. We believe you are not the best mom unless you are the best you! ‘Mom’ magazine is fun, on trend, yet accessible for all moms.”
Distributed by TimeWarner, “Mom” is available at major retailers such as Wal-Mart and Barnes & Noble for $5.99 and also in pediatrician offices nationwide.
