    Misery loves company

    I was a totally useless person from week 5-8! I was SSOOO tired, went to bed at like 7 or 8! I perked up after that and was able to resume working out pretty regular, at least 2 times a week but more like 3 times a week. Congrats on your pregnancy, it'll get better! :)

    Baby carrier recommendations

    only walking IMO is safe - you have to maintain balance and I don't think you could do that on those activities.

    I also enjoy my Bjorn, but they cost alot. You can easily get one used for like $25 though.

    Cathe (or educated crowd) need one more inch off hips

    This is true. It's best to go buy standard size charts and actual measurements to know your true size. Most women can fit in three sets of sizes depending on the company, per a report I heard - smart marketing huh!
