RE: Outstanding, Thanks!! Wow! You're making my head swell with all these nice compliments! I'm glad I'm able to contribute since I have received so much helpful advice from these forums for such a long time! To answer your questions: 1. I used "Pilates for Dummies" or Kari Anderson's...

RE: Question -- HELP!! Sorry it took a while to respond! I've been on vacation! Below is a basic schedule that I followed: Weeks 1-4 M - 45 min. stroller walk with baby + Pure Strength CST + abs Tu - 1 hour cardio video + abs W - 45 min. stroller walk with baby + PS Legs and Abs Th - 1 hour...

Thanks for the sweet remarks, Beets! I really did try to keep my weight gain within reason but I really felt famished all the time during those last few weeks and pretty much ate whatever sounded good! Good luck and best wishes for a healthy pregnancy and baby! :-) Wendy

Hi Cathe! I gave birth to my son Grant (my first) on Feb. 25. I wasn't able to work out very much during my pregnancy due to lots of morning sickness and gained 40 pounds! Twenty pounds came off pretty quickly his birth but the rest was due to lack of physical activity and WAY too many...

Congrats to you and your family, Cathe! So glad you had a healthy delivery and all is well! :-) Wendy G.

Congrats on your darling baby girl! I hear ya on the "no sleep" thing! My son was born on Feb. 25th and I think the most sleep I've gotten at a stretch is two hours! It's worth it, though! :-) Glad Mom and baby are healthy and happy!

I haven't posted here in a long while, but wanted everyone to know that Grant Robert arrived on Monday, Feb. 25 (5 days early!). He weighed 7 lbs., 4 oz. and was 20 inches long and has a FULL HEAD of blond hair! Everyone thinks it's pretty funny, considering that I had black hair when I was...

I'm due March 2! I'm feeling great, although I'm VERY tired at the end of the workday. We're getting very excited for this baby to come! I'm getting a little nervous about labor (this is my first), but I know it will all be worth it! :-)

Things are going well for me! I'm right behind you Alli, at 26 weeks (due March 2). In the last couple of weeks I've really popped out and everyone says that I look pregnant now! I've been eating quite a bit as well, but am trying to balance healthy foods with chocolate binges! :-) I've...

Hi Cathe! I hope you're still considering doing a pre- and postnatal workout video(s). I'm 5 1/2 months pregnant with our first baby (it's a boy! :-)) and would love a Cathe pregnancy workout to use (if not with this pregnancy, then the next!) There seems to be a void in prenatal workout...

Congrats on both your little girl and your name choice. Olivia was going to be my choice for a girl too. I've loved that name since I was a teenager! However, we found out that we're having a BOY and we are having a terrible time deciding on a name! At least we have a few more months to...

Hi! Congrats on your decision to start trying! Just wanted to let you know that I bought the ClearPlan Fertility Monitor because after going off the pill, my cycles were anything but regular! They're quite expensive, but it worked the FIRST month we tried it. We kind of laughed that we...

Haven't checked in in a couple of weeks. I've been forgetting to do a lot of things lately! Everyone tells me that it's a "pregnancy thing"! :-) I love reading how everyone is doing. Sounds like everyone is doing well. I'm feeling much better these days. I'm still able to wear my regular...

Thought I'd check in too! My nausea has finally started to let up and I'm feeling more myself again! I do tend to get some nasty headaches by the end of the day, but for the most part they are starting to get better too. I go to the dr. on Monday for the AFP blood test. I'm hoping that we...

Sorry to ask, but I haven't been able to get in for a few days. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks!

Congrats on the news! We still have a few more weeks before we can find out what we're having. What fun to look forward to!!

Pleae add me to your list: [email protected] Thanks for all the work you've put into this! Wendy

Yea Cathe! I had a feeling this announcement would come soon! I know little Eric will be two in December and thought "I bet it's time for another!" My sister and I are two and 1/2 years apart and it was nice to for us to be so close in age growing up. I'm almost 3 months pregnant with my...

I am nearing the end of my first trimester and am wondering if I could do ab work on an incline bench. I know you are not supposed to be flat on your back after the first trimester and thought this would be an alternative. I searched the archives and didn't see anything about doing abs on an...

Hi Everyone! I'm visiting my family in Montana until August 15. Fortunately, my parents have Internet access, or I'd be suffering from some serious withdrawal! Pathetic, isn't it? ;-) I also got to meet my nephew for the first time last week! He's a month old and so much fun to hold! I'm...
