Hi ladies!!!
Wow, the holidays hit and life got crazy for awhile, so I've been off the boards for a few weeks. I posted once to introduce myself the end of November and then was never heard from again!
I'm almost 22 weeks now with fraternal twins-- we found out at our last ultrasound that we're having a boy AND a girl!
We learned that we were having twins when I was about 13 weeks along-- definitely the biggest surprise of our lives!!! We're looking to deliver hopefully some time in April. (40 weeks will be May 4th, but twins tend to arrive around 36 weeks on avg.)
I'm just easing back into workouts a little-- my first 15 weeks were pretty miserable, and the last several weeks just running after our preschoolers (DS is 4, DD is 3) and keeping up with the holiday festivities has been workout enough!!!
Mostly I've just been doing incline walking on the TM or a little interval training on the EXT. I get pretty bad sciatica during pregnancy and those exercises don't seem to aggravate it the way step, etc might.
Kristine: Thanks for starting the check in back up!!!
34 weeks! You are getting so close! How are you feeling? Those last few weeks can seem so l-o-n-g. Hope all is well.
Kendra: WOW, 7 kids! Congratulations!!! You are officially my inspiration-- being able to workout 6 days a week!
That is awesome.
Lilly: A cruise sounds like heaven right now! We're in the middle of a big snowstorm here at the moment. (We're in the Rockies.) I hope you enjoy every moment in the Caribbean.
Hey, don't worry about feeling lazy-- I think you're totally allowed... especially during the 1st trimester!
Amber: I sure hope you're feeling better-- being sick on top of pregnant is so miserable.
That's awesome you were able to get through Shock Cardio, though!!! How are you enjoying the new workouts??? I've been trying to resist getting them until after the twins arrive... but it's soooo tempting!
Well, I'd probably better get going... I need to get a few things done around the house & then I'm kicking back and relaxing tonight! It's my birthday, so DH is bringing takeout home from my favorite restaurant & having a cozy night in!
