RE: One more member in the club! Hi Liza, I'm 18 weeks and while my doctors have done a fair amount of monitoring of the fibroids (before and during pregnancy), they haven't limited any of my activity because of them (just the usual guidelines that Fitnik posted--thanks!). They say there's a...

One more member in the club! I also have three large ones. My doctor hasn't said anything to me about modifying my exercise because of them. Curious to hear more! Diana

Congratulations on the new addition! Wonderful news!! Diana

RE: I sure he'll be OK My brother had a similar reaction. He said (in a monotone voice), "wow, that's great. so, how's work?" I realized later that this has more to do with him than me. I guess you can never tell how someone is going to react! Anyway, I'm sure that Windy is right. Once he...

Hi Cathe! Thanks for your response. This sounds like a good plan to me! Thanks! Diana

Hi all! I'm 15 weeks right now and was given the ok by my doctor to work out again. I had some bleeding at 12 weeks and had to stop working out for 3 weeks. Well, now I'm feeling much better, the baby's fine, and I'm ready to workout again, but I'm a little paranoid about doing too much to start...

That's wonderful news! Like you, I have been off the cardio wagon since getting pregnant. Hoping to get back to cardio in a week or so. You post gives me hope! :-) Diana

Thanks for the recommendation Cathe. I'm just 5'3" and have been having a heck of a time finding pregnancy clothes for petites. Any other suggestions? Thanks! Diana

Congratulations Alli!! :D

Cathe, You look beautiful! And little Eric is such a cutie! Good luck over the next few weeks. Can't wait to see the new baby! Diana

What wonderful news! Congratulations!!!!

RE: Plies... Hi Erica! Thanks again for all the suggestions. So far, I'm feeling fine, just tired! Hope you are feeling ok! Diana

RE: Plies... Hi Erica, Thanks for the info. I went back and looked at your post about the plies. That's a bummer because I love plies as well (sigh). Are you doing floor work from PS as a substitute? I'll also try the ball, great suggestion! Thanks! Diana

Me too! Congratulations everyone! I'm also almost 35 and 11 weeks preganant with my first. Seems like there's a bunch of us pregnant at the same time, how nice! :-) I had a quick question about plies. I was confused by an earlier post, is it safe to do plies during pregnancy or not? I've had...

Hi Karen and Honeybunch, I appreciate the recommendations. It seems like there's more choices than I thought. My husband is the picky one in this decision -- he wants an upright bike and one that isn't noisy (so he can hear the TV while he works out!). I just want a good workout! Anyway, thanks...

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll check into these! Diana

Hi all! Does anyone have any exercise bike recommendations? The one I got at sears never worked right and I've never been able to have someone come out and fix it (argh!! :-mad). So, any suggestions would be most welcome! Thanks, Diana

Cathe, What a beautiful picture! Hope you and your family have a great holiday season! Diana

RE: I wanted to share my Cathe Xmas story! Hi Judy! Yes, my brother is awesome! I think you'll love the S&H series. I know I do and others on the forum are in love with it as well. Now, Step n Motion I, that one I don't have. Hmmmm...there's an idea! Have fun with your new tapes! Diana

I wanted to share my Cathe Xmas story! My brother sent me the CTX series on DVD for Xmas--they came yesterday! Imagine how excited I was when I saw a box from cathe.com on my porch! This act of kindness on his part was no mean feat. He's a hard-core body builder who's been lifting in gyms for...
