Finding a balance....

I am not one to complain or to make anyone feel sorry for me. However, I have been having the hardest time lately finding a exercise balance. I am in the "middle" of my journey and had finally come to terms with the fact I wasn't going to have any children. And low and behold when I start pushing myself into hyper drive to get my ideal body I started getting very very sick an having terrible pain, only to find out the impossible was possible and I am pregnant. I am currently about 13 weeks and I am overwhelmed with excitement, but I am also I little angry that I have tried so hard to be fit and healthy for once in and my life and I feel like I have to "take it easy" so to say because this might be my last chance. I am still running, and doing my weight training as usual. But I have been skipping days and I just don't want to give up on myself. How do you stay motivated while pregnant? I feel guilty about being angry about having to gain weight ( which I haven't yet, I am holding at the same weight for the last 6 week and lost some before that) any suggestions? :(
