Name: Rachel
Husband: Keith
How many kids do you have: two, Bill (6) and Lucy (4)
Due Date: March 7th 2013
DO you know the gender: Not yet
Have you picked out the baby's name? No
Where do you live: Auckland, New Zealand
Workouts: Well I've only known I'm pregnant for a week ... so before I knew that I was running, biking, doing bootcamp (3x per week) and hot yoga ... I went for a run on Monday and started spotting, so midwife has said no running, I can't go to bootcamp and not run, so I'm guessing no bootcamp either :-( Also told hot yoga isn't good, too hot for first trimester. So I guess I'll be walking and biking ... might have to start swimming again!
Anything else you'd like to share: This is a bit of a surprise addition to our family, in a moment of madness a few weeks ago we did decide to have another ... and voila ... we're slowly adjusting to the idea, all my fears are about not having enough money/ time, but today I've been feeling really chipper about having a new addition. I think my kids would adore a little bro or sis! I know they'll both want the opposite (my sone will want a brother, as he already has a sister!)0 -

I have the FIRM and some Jillian workouts that I like to do but modified.
