Re: Exciting News(OT) AND Sad news (LONG!!!)

[Guest guest]

CONGRATULATIONS!! What wonderful news!!! I'm so excited for you guys!!!

I know it is usual for new moms to worry, but just remember that you are

starting things out so much ahead of the " curve " being in such great

shape and so healthy already. As far as exercising, I have heard the

first trimester is the hardest on the body with all the new changes, and

hormones floating around, lack of energy is common, etc. I used to be a

pregnancy nutrition counselor as an intern for college and most of the

women who came in at first were experiencing many of the same changes

you mention. Just try to take things one day at a time!

Colleen, who is grinning from ear to ear and so happy for you!!

Well, I have been tyring to hold off telling you guys this, but

it

just isn't going to happen. I'M PREGNANT!!!!!

[Guest guest]

AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! Big congratulations, Darcy! I am sooooo happy for

you! I'm the slightest bit jealous too, though! My hubby and I are trying

to conceive too! In fact, I'm ovulating pretty soon, so it would be really

cool for everyone to keep their fingers crossed for me!

You're going to make a wonderful mother!

Hugs,

Exciting News(OT) AND Sad news (LONG!!!)

Well, I have been tyring to hold off telling you guys this, but it

just isn't going to happen. I'M PREGNANT!!!!! I didn't want to say

anything in fear of jinxing myself so early in the pregnancy, but I

thought if I told everyone here, then that would be that many more

lovely people saying a prayer for me Not that prayers are

actually needed, it's just that I'm horrified of having a

miscarriage. I'm only 5 1/2 weeks along and can not wait until I get

past the first trimester so I know everything will be alright. I'm

usually not a worry-wart, but I'm definitly worried on this one!

Anyway, as most of you know we have been trying since last fall

(September) and have been temping and doing the whole nine yards in

order to conceive. I must say and admit, it wasn't a fun thing to

do!! All my other children from here on out are going to be pure

accidents....lol.. I just found out a week ago from today and have

been on cloud 9 ever sice

Now for the sad news....

I have ZERO (yes no) motivation to do Tae-Bo. Ever since I found out

about being pregnant I have forced myself through each workout. I

was hoping the doctor would tell me that I needed to slow down but

that wasn't the case! I think that I'm just so excited about being

pregnant, that it's hard to concentrate on much else. SO, I have

decided to cut back on Tae-Bo significantly and try doing other

workouts. I have officially cut back to 6 days a week starting

immediately and will eventually cut back even more, but for now I am

just taking one day at a time. My time each day exercising is also

getting reduced. The last two mornings I have not done Tae-Bo, but

have done other workouts. The first time in over 2 years that I have

not done Tae-Bo two days in a row - WOW, what a change! I am very

sad that Tae-Bo doesn't appeal to me and am hoping that the desire

comes back soon!! I think the main reason is just that I'm scared to

go full boar like I normally do and then it makes the workout a pain

in the butt to constantly be worrying I'm above my heart rate or

whatever. I have been doing less intense workouts the past few days,

and even with that, it's hard to stay motivated.

Sorry for such the long post, but I tried to sum it up as much as I

can. I'm very excited to be pregnant and will be here still every

step of the way. If you think of it, please add my baby into your

prayers that everything will be just fine.... I will keep you

updated on my progress...

Love and hugs to you all

OH... Thank you sooo much Colleen, , and t. I am sooo not

lying when I say that I am truly ecstatic. I'm so excited!! Your

posts truly mean a lot to me.

you on any e-group for trying to conceive? I know a really good one

if your interested that I could recommend. I've learned SOOOO much

about trying to conceive from the list. Also do you have the

book " Taking Chare of Your Fertility " . That is like the fertility

bible... I just got mine (a little late..lol).

Anyway, Best of luck to you . Your time will come soon!!

Okay, Janick, since you are offereing, I will take the hug AND the

high 5.... Thank you so much for the post, it really made me smile.

You were also here from day one when I was talking about my concerns

about conceiving. Wow, I've gotten to know you guys so much and so

many of you have went through so much with me already - it's truly

amazing.

As for the sad part, you are right, it's not sad, but just feels

different to not desire to do it. I have done an hour of exercise

every morning this week though and feel good about it. They havn't

been nearly as hard as Tae-Bo, but at least I am doing something!!

AND I'm comfortable with how high my heart rate has been (and not

worrying)

Arms " by Corey Everson yesterday.

Darcy,

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited for you and your husband. Don't worry

about not tae-boing. Just do whatever working seems

appealing. You'll be back to tae-bo when the time is

right.

Kerri

who knows that Darcy will be a wonderful mom!
