    Crying baby and working out

    That is such a tough age! My first DD was a cryer, I would let her cry for a minutes than pause my workout to change/nurse her. As mentioned, I would then put her in her swing and let her cry til she fell asleep. Despite, my starting and stopping, I always finished my workout and despite the...

    Exhausted and Frustrated

    I read in parents magazine that sleep for new moms actually does improve weight loss! The advice to squeeze in short workouts is great! The other great news is that their is a light at the end of the tunnel! Most 2 year olds sleep through the night so #2 should be easier than #1 was plus you've...

    Super Mom's Check In Week of Mar 30th

    Mel- I can't even move at 5 AM! Morris- I usually link tantrums to fatigue and or hungry and try to be understanding. So far, my girls tantrums are containable. If in a store, I put Ashley in her stroller and ignore her or give her food. My best advice for tantrums, keep your cool, and don't...

    Super Mom's Check In Week of Mar 30th

    Morris-glad Finn is feeling better. Get used the tantrums, especially after #2 comes! For me, it was te bladder during pregnancy that kept me from doing high impact. Wow- on the workouts. Tae Bo is the old fashioned Billy blanks kickbox. Less impact than cathe or Amy but some great leg work.

My oldest daughter was 2.9 when my second one was born. It works with most infant seats but has a regular...

    monitors

    Nina, we have a double jogger by in step as well as the sit and stroll tandem. I love the sit and stroll for trips to the mall, it is easy to maneuver but the back is not that comfortable. It worked great for me since Alexis was almost 3 when Ashley came, but you probably need a regular double...
