Post Partum Check In June 17th

[Krille007]

Hi mommies,

Where is everybody? I hope that everyone and their babies are doing well.

Heidi and I are doing great. Well, I have a little cold or maybe allergies, I am not sure. I am hoping that I won't pass it on to her :-( .
There was a lot of rolling over in our house this weekend . If I lay a toy to Heidi's left, she'll roll from her back to her tummy without a problem. She is not that good on her right side yet. She hadn't rolled over much today, it just comes in phase. Right now she talks a lot.

Here are my workouts from last week:

Mon - GS Back, Shoulder and Biceps and CM #1
Tue - IMAX 2 - Yes, I made it even through Interval 9 }(
Wed - off (too busy babysitting my friends 21 month old little girl)
Thu - GS Chest and Triceps
Fri - Yoga
Sat - off (my cold started )
Sun - GS Legs

Didn't do to good on my ab work this week, but it'll come. I sure enjoy doing my Cathe workouts again, the time just flys and I am having so much fun!!!

Lori - Where are you? Missing you starting our thread. Hope everyone is well.

Stacey - Wow, how do you handle 3 kids. I was already overwhelmed with two when I was babysitting on Wed and Thu. Must say that my friend's little girl was a little jealous of Heidi because she is not used to her, so that made it a little harder.

Jean - I really like P90X. It is a nice change and I needed a change when I started working out again. I think Cathe was too hard and I didn't feel like pushing myself, so P90X was just right. They are really nice workouts and you can make them as tough as you want to. The only thing I didn't like that you are doing the same workouts over and over again for 12 weeks and it got boring for me. I did the lean rotation and I think I really would enjoy the classic rotation because I love lifting weights. I think I could have motivated myself a little more if I would have done that rotation and finish the 12 weeks. Overall, I really recommend it. And I know that at a later point I will do the classic rotation. If you have more questions about it, just let me know.

Alright ladies, I am going to go to bed now and hopefully I will be feeling better tomorrow.

Hi everyone!
Okay, I really am typing this at 2:30am in the morning as I seem to be having some insomnia the last few nights! This happens to me every once in a while and I can't stand it. Nothings really bothering me, I just get off my sleep cycle and it takes me a few nights to get back on track.

Kristine, thanks for starting the thread and so great about Heidi's rolling over! Ryan isn't quite rolling from back to tummy but is awfully close. He is big time into his feet and it is so cute. Sorry to hear about your colds, that is no fun for sure. Hope you feel better soon. Looks like you had some good workouts last week though. How do I manage with 3 kids? Well, at times it certainly is crazy, but for the most part, it's been quite manageable. It really helps that there is nearly a 4 year gap between Emma and Ryan, that has made a huge difference. My older two will play together nicely and even help out with the baby when I need it which is wonderful. My kids are sweethearts and I feel truly blessed. The 19month age gap between my 1st and 2nd was much more of a challenge for sure, but has ended up being great as they are good little buddies and can share a lot of toys, etc. and even share a room.

Well, afraid my workout week last week was pretty light, just low on energy (lack of sleep not helping matters). Here's what I was able to do though:

Monday – Rest Day
Tuesday – Low Impact Step (40min)
Wednesday – Total Body Sculpting (30min)
Thursday – Rest Day
Friday – Pilates for Abs (30min)
Saturday – Elliptical Intervals (30min)
Sunday – Rest Day

Hoping to get in 5 days this week and a bit more intensity, cause I'm so close to my goal weight now.

Have a great week everyone Going to try to sleep now!!

Hey Girls,

I was here last night trying to start this thread and i almost finished it but one of those error reports popped up and wiped out everything that I wrote. Thats been happening alot to me lately.

I have been pretty busy this week so far. My SIL and fam came home on Wed and we have been non stop. Plus I had my neices christening on Sun and we had to travel for that.

Rylan finally rolled over last Sun but hasn't been doing it much since. You know, with these baby groups its really hard not to compare your babies to others. There is one little boy that is younger then Rylan and he is rolling all over the place and apparently he said "momma" this weekend. Isn't it a little young for babies to be talking at 5 monthes? Prehaps she was just hearing things?

My workouts have still been good. I had to look it up last night to see what I had done...and now I have to try and remember it!

Sun- 5 mile run
Mon- 60 min run and BBW
Tues-PUB and Imax 3
Wed- Rythmic step...or was that last week? can't remember!
Thurs- BM2 cardio blast and PUB
Fri- 3 mile run and PLB
Sat- 6 mile run

Kristine, DH has allergies this time of the yr and I feel for him! Im not allergic to anything so I have no idea what it feels like. Sounds like Heidi is doing really well!

Stacy, 2:30? I bet your tired today! I love my sleep and have no trouble falling to sleep!!!

Alright, I will probably be back later.
