    Postpartum Check-In Oct. 14

    Linda, I'm so sorry to hear that the adjustment to stop nursing has been hard. I can kind of relate, when I quit nursing Maisie I had a period of time where I moarned the end of an era. It's kind of sad. How old is Lincoln? 4 months? My youngest daughter is just about 5 months old and is...

    Postpartum rotation?

    Hi there, I think you just heard some of the best advice *ever* from Morris. We all recover differently from being pregnant and have varying amounts of time, etc. I wish someone had told me this when I was bouncing back from my two pregnancies. Anyway, just wanted to throw my 2 cents in... I...

    postpartum check in week of 9/3

    I am soooo jealous of you ladies getting so much sleep. Alice has decided to do 4-5 hour stretches again. She was doing 8 hrs. I think she is in a growth spurt right now. <big sigh> Less sleep = crappy workouts = cranky mommy. Oh well, it will get better soon, I'm sure... I missed last...

    My daughter is 2 today!

    Hi Diana! Yeah! Nora is 2! I can't belive time flies so quickly, can you? It seems like our little toddlers are still babies but, at the same time they are big girls now. That is so sweet that Nora participates in your workouts. You are such a good mommy setting a healthy example for her...

    postpartum check in august 20

    Hello ladies! Wow, you have been a busy bunch this week! Your workouts look great. Alice is still sleeping about 7-8 hours overnight....thank God! I just need to get my tail into bed to take advantage of it. She usually goes to bed about 7pm and sleeps until 2:30a. It's weird how they...

    Post Baby Workouts

    Hi! After delivering both of my girls I started easing back into workouts around 4 weeks. I stayed with pretty easy workouts until my bleeding stopped. After that, I kicked it up a notch. Once I started getting more sleep (because my babies were sleeping more) then I kicked it up a notch again...

    Post partum check in week of aug 13

    Hello! Well, I felt like I had a really good week. I'm starting to really get the hang of juggling 2 kids and working out. Alice is 11 weeks old now and is holding her hands. It's so cute. I tease her that she has been doing an awful lot of praying these days. Anyway, here are my workouts...

    The 3rd workout is Interval Max. I LOVE IMAX! It is probably my favorite Cathe video. The intervals are awesome and it works you hard. I hope you have fun with this one. :)

    post partum check in week of aug 6

    Shopaholic, I forgot about vol 3 w/ Sandahl. That one was not that bad either. One of these days I will have to give the Firms a try again. The Cardio Blast video sounds promising. I know what you mean about having results with the Firms. My body always responds well to low weight/high rep...

    post partum check in week of aug 6

    Shopaholic, I am curious what you think of the newer Firms vs. the older Firms. I loved vol 1 & 2. But, everything I tried after that was too easy ... plus, it was too theatrical. Are they any better?

    postpartum check in -week of July 30

    Morris - Alice handled her shots pretty well. Of course she cried when she got them, but, the next 24 hours were pretty good. If she started to get cranky then I gave her Tylenol and that took care of that. She was really sleepy too and slept most of the next day. What surprised me was that on...

    postpartum check in -week of July 30

    Hello! Well, Alice is now 9 weeks old and is nearly sleeping through the night (getting up only 1 time to feed)...unfortunately, that did not help my workouts last week. It was a busy week and workouts suffered. Even though I did not have great workouts I was able to keep at least 10,000 steps...

    Diana, Hi there! It was not been easy finding the time to workout in the early few weeks. I just posted to the Cathe forum a few weeks ago asking for advice on fitting it all in. (They had some great ideas BTW). Surprisingly, things have been pretty good with 2 kids. And, as each week passes...
