36+ weeks

A bit of drama at this week's doctors appointment has meant that I had to scale way back on activity to try to fatten up this little guy! He is measuring on the small end so we are doing what we can to help him grow as much as possible in the next few weeks. That said, Bowen did the exact same thing at the same period so really hoping that is just how our babies grow.....

Nap:-)

Saturday Jan. 19th- felt horrible, super tired, light headed etc.

3 miles - alternating incline walk on the treadmill (15% grade) and running. The walking definitely feels better on my belly / hips / pubic bone but I can't get out of my head enough to walk the whole time. That said, the running feels easier than the walking and actually becomes my "break" from the tougher effort of the incline.  Called it a day after 3 miles because I was feeling so crappy.

Friday
Wrapped up a rough week of tech training in the office. Commuting every day (not to mention sitting for 8 hours) kills me! I don't know how other people do it.

45:00 Bar Method
45:00 Spinning at FlyWheel
30:00 Yoga at Core Power - had to leave after 30:00 because I wasn't feeling well but it still helped my back quite a bit.
