Firm Believer!

I know I've said this before..and I'll probably say it a couple more times: If you're given the OK to do so, I'm a big fan of exercise during pregnancy!! This time I'm not trying to toot my own horn, either, I promise! Just hear me out..

After the last three shifts at work, my back has been killing me! So yesterday, at the suggestion of my very sweet hubby, I went & got a prenatal massage. And if was wonderful! It felt great & was SOOO relaxing. But my back, sadly, was still really achy after..and I was bummed about that.

So, this morning, after tossing & turning all night trying to get comfy, I laced up my sneakers & headed to the gym, figuring that if the treadmill was too tough today, I'd just stick w/ the elliptical. I walked in the gym with a hitch in my giddy-up (yup, I just said that:), & walked out with my back & hips feeling 100% better! Yay!

All I can chalk it up to, is I guess my muscles just know what they like! And they like to move!

P.S. The dude gets really active when I'm exercising, & I like to imagine him in there jogging on his own little treadmill, or swimming laps like his daddy, while I'm working out..totally cracks me up!

You are so cute and funny Meg, I love reading your blog! I can totally imagine him in there excersizing with you...how could he not with such active parents, it's in his genes! I'm glad your back is feeling better. Hopefully you will get some good sleep tonight!

Oh I love massages. ahhhhh. lovely.

I know nothing about pregnancy, but I know that if/when I ever get pregnant, I hope to workout even HALF as much as you do.
