I have worked out four days this week. I'm on my way out the door to the Y as I type this. I'm sitting here in my shorts and tank. I am sore. Sore like an old lady, sore. Man. I haven't worked out seriously in a long ass time. Not even sure of a length. Let's just say I've had two kids in three years and I've been pregnant 18 months of that time. So, there has not been much working out.
My goal here is to get in shape pre pregnancy and hopefully maintain a healthy lifetstyle and exercise routine during my third pregnancy. I feel good. I'm sore (yes), but I'm doing it a slow pace and getting my body back. My abs are extremeley sore and I realize just how weird my muscles are in that area. They are weak. I'm going to make them strong.
The Y is great. If you have one in your area I would join. The kids have such a great time in the childcare. Jacob gets to interact with other kids.

Motherhood is Bliss!
After years of infertility, we are truly blessed to have three precious children in our lives. I never take a day for granted and know that God's timing is always perfect.

I love our YWCA! I was a member for the last month of my pregnancy and I'll sign up again in the fall. My fabulous MIL gave us a $300 Y giftcard for Christmas. We've had mixed results of the childcare room, but not because it isn't great--Peter just isn't used to that sort of situation. I'm not sure if I'll leave Leo there at 6 mo. old--maybe just long enough for me to shower. I can use the track with a stroller. Although I'd love to get back to spinning classes. Hmmm.
Let me ask you to please run a big mile for me too because the good lord knows I can't walk to the mailbox and back!
We don't have a Y, but I have recently joined a gym and am exercising at least 3 times a week. I can relate to your sore muscles! I do feel better when I exercise, and my oldest just loves the kids club they have there. He loves it so much, in fact, that he frequently asks if I'm going ot the gym, so he can go to his. Too cute! Good for you for doing this! Can I ask you a question? How long did it take for you to see results??? Yah, I'm not a patient person:)
4 work-outs in one week is awesome! You're sure to be seeing results soon. I did 3 times this week, but ate too many sweets this week-end! Gonna have to "kick it up a notch" this week, to quote the guy on my "Abs Diet Work-out" dvd. I'm only good at going to a gym if I'm signed up for a class. But, I do use the childcare at the one by us for swim lessons. One kid goes to "Kids Corner" while the other has their lesson. They seem to enjoy it. Although, my 4 year old just likes to watch a show while she's there. The novelty of "all the toys" has worn off for her. My 2 year old enjoys playing there, but isn't always happy to see me leave. She usually recovers quickly, though. Whoever thought of the gym childcare is a genius!
