    Swollen Hearts for our Bambino Valentines--Check in

    Hi all, I know I have not been around much since Titus was born. I was doing really well for a couple of months on working out, but was not eating well. Now I am not even working out because I feel tired. At the moment DH and I are sick, so not a very happy valentines day for our family. I...

    Hey ladies. There is not nearly as much chatter with Melanie and Jen having their babies, congratulations! Titus Andrew was also born on Tuesday November 10 after 41 hours of labor. He was in respiratory distress and rushed to the nursery. He spent a day and a half on oxygen and a nutrient...

    where can I find exercise programs?

    I do not think that you will find pregnancy weight lifting videos for the simple reason that those who did not lift before being pregnant should not start, and those who did lift before can continue doing whatever you have been doing. My doctor has said that the general preggo rule is: do what...

    Gigantic Bellies & Healthy Babies Check-In Oct 11th

    Melanie - I have had three showers, and have everything I need. I still have a couple of decorations (glow-in-the-dark stars) that I need to buy off of amazon. I will try to post pictures of my belly and nursery, but no promises as I have had a hard time getting dinner on the table lately. I...

    Gigantic Bellies & Healthy Babies Check-In Oct 11th

    Congratulations to Susan and Wendy! I am so happy that you are safe and your babies are healthy. I have not been around much, mostly because all original thought seems to have leaked out of my head. Writing Thank you notes has not been this hard since the third grade, thankfully DH is...

    Too lazy to post three different threads....

    For tempo runs I do not have an HRM so I use the Runner's World perceived exertion test that Janis mentioned. For music, Limewire has the best free service. The problem with all free services, is that these are not official releases, they are whatever people have made available, so you must...

    Mel - I hope that you the 2.5hr Dr. works out well for you. 5 hrs would be rough. So glad that you hubby has gotten the cribs done for you, even if he still has some making up work to do. Jen - I was laughing about your DH not smiling b/c mine is the opposite. In all of his baseball pics...

    Preggo Checkin, Babies getting ready!! Sept 13

    I know I have not been around for a few weeks. It is so exciting seeing how many are getting close. Since I last posted: I had my glucose screening. No diabetes. Hooray! I had my Rhogam shot. So glad that is available. I keep shoving my boy's limbs back into my belly. He seems to like push...

    Next question for Staying at Home so many years

    Making sure that your resume is perfect (as Nancy said) is step number 1. Also make sure that you show up for your interview in professional attire. My husband got a job in finance straight out of college with a masters in history because his boss said he was the only one to take the trouble...

    Prego Support July 27-August 3

    Prescilla - so sorry to hear about previa. I will be praying that the doctor is just covering themselves and that it will clear up on quickly on its own. Christine - Too funny about the beer. I have a friend who is German and said that when she was pregnant her doctor told her she was...

    Prego Support July 27-August 3

    Hey Jen - I have been feeling really gassy lately too. Something that helped was I did Kick Max (no intensity drills for me). But during the standing leg drills much pressure was released, gross, but quite a relief. Don't know if that will help. Good luck finding something that works.

    60% ma too heavy??

    Here is what I often wind up doing. Example: For tricep kickbacks I can easily complete 15 reps with 15 lbs, but when I jump up to 20 lbs, I start losing form around rep 11. So I will start the set by doing 10 reps at 20 lbs then complete the last 5 reps using 15lbs. I slowly increase the...

    Prego Support July 27-August 3

    Hello to everyone! I am enjoying my nesting phase and all that I am getting done. I also enjoy the endorphin rush at things like getting into my car now that it is clean. My biggest task has been moving my craft supplies from the nursery closet to anywhere else. It always amazes me how much...

    Pregnant Hotties July 19th

    Susan - What is your pregnancy recipe site? I love soup and know that I should be eating more heathfully, healthier, full of healthness? Priscilla - I am sure everything is fine, my ultrasound keeps showing my boy two weeks too big, and I have been told that I may just be early. Definitely...

    Pregnant Hotties July 19th

    Hello ladies, No cravings to report here. I am also not really exercising because I am spending my time after work trying to get stuff done (if I don't just sit on the couch for the night). I am sewing my crib set, cleaning out the baby closet, and in general rearranging my house. The laundry...
