Interesting article on exercise in pregnancy and baby's birth weight. I don't necessarily think a baby over 8lbs. is obese (I was a whopping 10lbs. when I was born), but I can definitely see the advantages for the mama of having a normal birth weight baby.
I'm worried that I'm not getting the intensity up as high as I could/should be. I'm so paranoid about depriving the baby of oxygen that sometimes I barely break a sweat throughout the workout. I'm going to start upping the intensity and see how my breathing goes.
Dinner tonight with my mom, so I might not get to this depending on where we go and how much I eat:).
<--Updated: 2.22.10--> Well, not only did I not do this on Thursday, I didn't do it Friday, Saturday or Sunday either! Total slacker lately and it's been killing my self-esteem. Weird how awful I feel about myself when I don't exercise. I can't imagine a life without regular exercise (despite my track record lately!). I did do some physical activity this weekend, though, just not anything for an extended period of time. DH and I decided to swap living room furniture, so I helped him move the sectional that was upstairs to our downstairs den. Had to call in my dad for reinforcements to bring the basement couch upstairs though (belly felt a little pulled/tight and got me worried). Then Sunday, I helped moved a buffet type furniture piece to the car. So, it wasn't much, but it was at least better than spending the entire weekend on the couch.
I told my boss & co-workers about the pregnancy last Friday. It's such a relief to not have to hide it anymore. I wasn't really hiding it for any reason other than I hadn't had a chance to tell my boss yet (and to be honest, I was nervous about telling), but trying to find outfits in the morning was getting to be worrisome:).
