HI everyone!
Jen--I've been craving bean burritos with cheese and tomatoes and lettuce, melted cheese on toast with mustard (?), cool whip and canned peaches, carrots and at least once a week, I've been sending my husband out for some sort of take out because everything in the house sounds gross. I'm really surprised that I feel so bad still, because usually I'm much better by now.
Morris--I lift as usual during pregnancy, the only exception is that I put my bench at an incline during all work whilst I lie on my back. Lifting is not as affected as cardio is for me during pregnancy. I'll probably quit working out at 38 or 39 weeks because at that point my lower back really starts to bother me with the weights. I'm terrible with abs when I'm not pregnant, so even worse when I have an excuse to avoid them. Also about the babies, my babies were in order: 8lbs 6oz, 8lbs 7oz, 8lbs 3oz, 9lbs 6oz, 10lbs 7oz, and 9lbs 1oz. The amount of weight I gained did not really corrolate with the size of the baby, which baffles me.
Lisa--I struggle with emotional eating and I don't really have any advice, I just feel your pain and angst about it.
Kristan--It's good you are getting your skin checked. Be diligent. My mother died of melanoma (not to scare you or anything). Back when she was diagnosed, people were just starting to have an awareness of it. I (with red hair, fair skin, green eyes) have worn sunscreen everyday since her diagnosis. Basal skin cancer is pretty easily taken care of though. I can't wait to hear about your ultrasound. Are you finding out this time? Wasn't it you they made a mistake with last time regarding gender?
Melanie--I'm glad you are feeling less stress. Sometimes we just have to release our desires to the Lord and let Him work in His own time. I've never had problems with fertility, but I've had other issues in my life where I've really had to learn to wait on Him.
For example, we shared a home with my mil for 11 years-- I never thought we'd have our own house--EVER, so I just eventually had to let go the desire and and then finally, we were able to buy our own house and she has her own house and the difficult experience was over and I'm actually glad that I had to go through it. The Lord grew me a lot through it. I know that a house and a baby are like comparing apples and oranges and I don't want to minimize your pain over this. I just want to encourage you ((hugs))
Autumn--the check is in the mail
Let me know when you get it.
Whew I wrote a lot. I am supposed to do Legs and Glutes and really don't feel like it. Perhaps I'll just double up tomorrow and do a leg/cardio circuit from the l&G/KPC DVD. Yeah, that's the ticket......
