Hi ladies,
Checking in again, but obviously no workout yet. I do miss them, but my body seriously needs to recover. I have sore muscles all over... the labor was just so hard on my body and now lack of rest. I am trying to rest, but with the whole labor trauma going thru my head at night it is sometimes hard to fall asleep and the last two days Mick has had more difficulty going to sleep in the evening and my milk has started coming in, so now I am sore in a whole other way!
Anyways... I cannot complain. I have a gorgeous healthy little boy. He was losing weight, but has now started gaining again so we are on track. For the first week I have a nurse helping out with him and household chores and my bf has been working from home, so I can send him off to run errands or bring Magnus to his training. Next week I will have to start managing on my own, but next week we are also allowed to leave the house. The first week both the baby and I are meant to stay home to recover, so no walking outside or anything.
I am still busy researching how and when I can start working out again. Officially they say after 6 weeks you can start building it up, but I am pretty sure I can start sooner with certain muscle groups or at the very least I can go for walks etc.
Q.o.t.d: As a kid/ teenager I did lots of different sports as we have previously discussed. When I was around 18 I discovered Tae Bo on VHS and soon after that while at uni I started going to aerobics classes and fitness in a gym. I got obsessed with the classes, preferring double classes and often going with a friend so we could see each other in the mirror and laugh while doing Step etc. I loved it so much that I wanted to get certified, but somehow life got in the way, finishing uni, starting work and then starting a family. After uni I continued with classes at gyms, mainly Les Mills and loved stuff like BodyCombat and then after Magnus was born and I ended up a single mom I started working out at home as I could not afford a gym and sitter. I didn't workout daily at that point though... many nights I just feel asleep on the couch or in Magnus's room from exhaustion. Single mom with a full time job and a kid that didn't sleep through the night at all was draining. I think I really started being addicted and a hoarder of workout dvds after I discovered BeachBody programs and KCM and Cathe, so not that many years ago... maybe the last 6 years or so.
