Nothing New Here Really…
Sunday, November 25th, 2007Still trying to get pregnant, coming up on try #3. I still can’t get over that it’s taking me this long to get pregnant when I got pregnant the first time on the very first try. But anyhoo… hopefully it’ll happen soon, there are several reasons why I want to be pregnant now as opposed to later. One of the biggest reasons is because I want to have child #2 before child #1 turns 4 (he’s coming up on 2 1/2 right now) cause once child #1 turns 4, I’m wanting to do a lot more with him as far as getting him involved in different activities. And I really don’t want to be trying to take care of an infant, with the breastfeeding and all, while trying to tote around a 4 yr old and do things with him. I think it would be much easier to have a ONE year old while doing things with the 4 yr old. Past experience tells me that I won’t feel like doing ANYTHING but sleeping during at least the first 6 months of child #2’s life, the breastfeeding is just a killer. I’m the only one who can feed the infant and infants eat every 2-3 hours so every 2-3 hours I’ve got an infant on my breast, makes it difficult to get much quality sleep at a time. So anyway, that’s that, as far as my training and diet goes, I’m still weight training 4 times a week, two day split, so hitting all upper body muscles twice a week, usually. Still skating once a week, I’m now taking my son skating once a week too. I want to give him the opportunity that I didn’t have, to become a good skater. He also walks pigeon-toed, so putting skates on him will help since he has to keep his feet pointed forward to go anywhere. My diet, well, not much of a diet, just eating really. I am still tracking everything I put into my mouth on fitday, that will always be the case. So since Nov 1st I’ve averaged 2350 calories and my weight is staying at 142 lbs, works for me, as even at 142 lbs I am pretty pleased with the amount of muscle definition I have (see Sept pics). So I will just keep doing what I’m doing, once I get pregnant is when the challenge will begin, or I should say about a month AFTER I get pregnant, as that was about the time I really started FEELING pregnant the first time, with all the fatigue and what not, then it became more challenging for me to get thru my workouts. That’s all for now, will keep you posted.
