    how did pregnancy effect your workouts

    First off - congrats! I have not worked out at all since becoming pg. Most days I feel awful about it. However, I had 2 m/c in the past year & I was just too afraid of that again this time around. I was also on a progesterone suppository that made things a little messy "down there." Sorry -...

    Bleeding started last night... pray all is ok

    Julie - It is good that they are checking your progesterone level. I have had 2 m/c before 6 weeks & I believe it was due to low progesterone. They can put you on a suppository that will help boost the level. I was on that for this pg. & just finished them this weekend. I still had sporadic...

    Yea! Another new pregnant girl here :-)

    Yeah! I got it. I just couldn't figure out how to get it to show up! Hehe My pregnancy has been closely monitored, although I don't know if they consider me "high risk." I had 2 chemical pregnancies before seeing an RE who helped me get this one to stick :) I am on (almost finished actually)...

    Yea! Another new pregnant girl here :-)

    Congrats! I am 34 & I refused the "triple screen" test (which is normal) but my doc had said that if I were 35, they would have pushed for amnio right off the bat. Of course, I wouldn't have agreed. Had that w/dd 12 years ago due to a false positive on the triple screen. Hence the reason I...

    Best news ever!

    RE: Wonderful!!!!! Sandra - looks like we can buddy up! I just found out this week that I am pg myself :) 4 weeks exactly. I am keeping my fingers crossed b/c I've had a few losses in the past year (thus all my knowledge of luteal phase etc..) Congratulations to you! Lynne

    Cathe- ? about punching form

    Not Cathe, but being a black belt in karate, I figured I'd give you my 2 cents :) Sounds like you are hyper extending your elbow. Make sure that you always keep a slight bend in your elbow when punching. Never lock it out. Hope this helps. Lynne

    so what's the worst body part to work out?

    Legs...yuck! haha I don't know why though, b/c it does feel really good when you do it. I just hate lunges. I miss my karate classes. Have to get back into it. All of those kicks made my legs & butt look fantastic! Lynne

    Hi Girls! There is a great website w/lots of message boards on these subjects! Try bbs.babycenter.com AF = Aunt Flo = beginning of your period. Sorry for the confusion! Also, I purchased a Clear Plan Easy Fertility Monitor. Excellent for tracking your cycle. It is like $200 new, but I bought...

    More talk about ferning

    Keep an eye on that ovulation. Take an opk, if you can. If you ovulate too close to af, the body does not have enough time to produce adequate progesterone to build he uterine lining to sustain a pregnancy. If you think this is your situation, I would consult your dr. - they can give you clomid...

    HELP! What does this mean???

    That sounds like implantation bleeding. Very common. I would test. I have had that w/all of my pregnancies. Best of luck. Lynne

    Congratulations! Did you say that you used an Ovulation Predictor Kit? I may have to try that. I just can't seem to figure out when I actually ovulate! Thanks & best wishes! Lynne

    Hello All & Happy Friday! Last nite for me was CTX Upper Body & I substituted Circuit Max for Body Fusion! Wow. That was my first time doing that workout. It was tough, but good. Tonite I am going to do the L&G that is required, but Saturday will be my rest day. I was going to sub IMAX2 for...

    Aug Rotation Check in (aug 18)

    Hello everyone! For me, yesterday was Cardio Kicks. It was pretty good. Today is S&H legs only plus the walking lunges. However, I think I need at least 1/2 hour of cardio in there, so I am thinking of throwing in some Rhythmic Step or Step Blast & hope for the best! Have a great day! Lynne

    Aug Rotation/Lower Body Aug 13

    Good Morning Everyone! Well, last nite was IMAX2 & I am really sore today. That was a rough one a day after those 200 walking lunges. Hopefully tonite will be HSTA (usually Fridays & Saturdays are hard for me to find time to work out.) But, if I don't get it in tonite, I will double up on...
