Anyone feeling old?

[boycrazy]

Hi all,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm 13 weeks preg. w/ my 4th child
(three boys 19, 8, & 3). I've been working out most of my adult life. I could really use the support this time because I'm exhausted and have to really force myself to stay active. Posting my workouts hopefully will make me feel accountable. My other preg. have been fantastic but feel very sick this time around. I have tried to listen to my body but if I had my way I could sleep all the time-40 is not going to get the best of me!
My workout plan is:

Sun- Jog 4 miles
Mon- Firm Time crunch
Tues- Gym- Cardio/ weights
Wed- Jog
Thurs. Gym- Cardio weighs
Fri. off
Sat. ME
Sorry so long- Can't wait to meet everyone
Take care,
Kim

Kim,

Congratulations and welcome to the forums!

Why don't you join the preggo's check in? I found it extremely motivating during my pregnancy and the women here are great and very supportive. It's nice to see what other preggos are up to and how they're handing pregnancy and it's many challenges.

Good luck with everything,

Hi Kim,

I second Wendy's suggestion--come join us on the expecting mom/preggos thread, where we post our workouts and other pregnancy related tidbits every week.

I definately have felt more tired the last 3 babies than I did the first 3. (I'm 37 and had my first at 26--just bounced thru that one).

take care
Maggie

Hey Kim...I'm 40 too. My last baby is almost two now (he is baby number 6), but I have to admit...the last pregnancy I was dragging much more so than the other five. We are getting older, but we can adjust our workouts to the situation at hand. When I get burned out, I take a few weeks to do only workouts that are fun! Never mind rotations, just do what you enjoy.

Now...I'm trying to figure out how on earth you can run 4 miles and be disappointed. I stand in awe. Running is just not my thing and I am majorly impressed with you runners...especially pregnant runners. No...40 is NOT going to get the best of you dear!. Check in on that prego site!!
