  • I'm so ready to get my butt in gear!!! I have about 20 lbs prepregnancy but I have about 10 more to lose on top! UGH! I feel like I just have not been very good this time. With 3 kids and teaching full time I'm having a hard time logging and working out...THEN I got on a good workout routine in the morning and broke my…
  • If you have a boy and circumsize. keep the gauze moist before you put it on! It will stick. My neighbor/close friend had a boy 2 months after and his was VERY stuck the night they came home from hospital. Dad almost passed out (doesn't do well with blood) and mom was an emotional wreck because he was screaming. Also, if…
  • Hi y'all---just logged back on MFP after a LONG time! I had been starting to lose weight when I found out I was preggers again at the end of January! Unfortunately I GAIN weight SO easily. Get me off a strict eating plan and putting my feet up and two months later i've gained 10 pounds I can't do this the whole pregnancy!…
  • Exercise Challenge... Not sure what day it ends/starts Sunday - Body attack Monday - Can't remember and didn't log Tuesday - Body attack Wednesday - weights/cardio for 30 minutes Thursday- field day- outside running around ALL day! Friday - weights/cardio for 30 minutes Saturday - Zumba I don't even remember what the…
  • Happy Mommy's Day to all of you!!! Have a relaxing day!
  • Ticker didn't work....how'd you do it? Just kidding! Works now!
  • I drink a cup of coffee in the am every day still. It's half caf. Eventually I'll wean completely off. Yesterday was a big field event at school and one mom asked me if she could bring me a latte today because she'll know I'll need to after Field Day. I said yes, totally not thinking about the caffine. She asked me "A…
  • You know we weren't trying. I wasn't on BC because we were going to start trying at the end of this month to have a spring baby. It was hard when I found out because I just started to lose weight. I about slapped myself for thinking I could continue taking all the supplements I was taking. i was in shock and denial and…
  • Lynn- I work with someone like that. I can't remember what she said but it was while she was still pregnant.....something about her baby wearing a dress that's 3-6 months and she'll be crawling all around on it. I know she didn't have a baby yet but really? crawling between 3-6 months.... she would say things like that…
  • meokk- so not enjoying the fact of doing a tankini!!! YUCK! But I livein TX and HAVE to go swimming....through sept and I'll be like 28 weeks! I have a huge maternity bathing suit bc my last son was born in June so I got one for May/June and then after.... Where did you get yours?
  • Of course it would save money but seeing a trainer while pregnant can ensure you are doing the right exercises while pregnant, assuming you are going to continue to workout. It makes sense though if you get a couple of tips for the coming months but then save the money and use the trainer more after! I just always ask the…
  • We told our family and close friends right away. There are about 4 people at work and about 4 at church that are our close friends that know! It's so hard not to tell but we had such a traumatic experience last fall we didn't want to tell everyone again like we did then. My apt isn't until the 19th and I'm just itching to…
  • Hi y'all! Here to join your group! I'm 6 1/2 weeks pregnant at this time. I miscarried in Sept. Had a horrible roller coaster ride from Aug 7th - Sept 17th. Thankful to move on...we weren't going to start trying until May but SURPRISE! We're going to have a December baby instead of feb/march/april like WE planned. God…
  • I ALWAYS ate FiberOne for breakfast until the last year or so! I started eating an egg and egg white on an english muffin or a bagel thin. I eat breakfast around 7 and lunch at 10:50 (i'm a 1st grade teacher so we eat earky) but I'm not hungry!
  • This weekend will be hard for me! My fave is Easter candy! But I've decided that what i'm bringing to the family dinner is a healthy option compared to the fried chicken that is being made! I have to remember that I only live once and I CAN have a dessert but that I don't NEED to eat everything that is there just because…
  • Agreed....weight is a number but my number went down finally! 156.2. Let's hope I can keep it up!
  • 158 ...same as last week! I'm comfortable knowing I didn't gain!
  • 158.2 - starting weight today
  • I'm game!!!! I will go to the school nurse in just a minute to see my weight! I have got to get this weight off!!! I'm miserable.
  • So I went to the doctor today and they did an ultrasound. There was just a sac...a nice sac that was nice and round and had lots of lining around it in the uterus but just a sac with a little speck inside. My doctor assured me it looks healthy but she thinks I'm earlier than I am. When I was pregnant last time they didn't…
  • So I have been slowly weaning myself off coffee so I don't have a huge headache...I've always drank half caf. but I've really cut down on how much I've had...yesterday I threw up all my coffee...thought I'd have a cup today. Stayed for a while. I actually felt good...then it all came back up again. I think i'm done with…
  • I know the research on the sperm is true but (I guess myth isn't the right word) the doing it before or after isn't precise! unless you are watching your egg drop getting the right sperm at the right time can be determined only by God! That's what I meant to say....cause we made sure we didn't do it after this time so…
  • lol yes. that would mean a boy but that's just a myth....They say it's because the girl sperm are stronger like the previous post says and they live longer and wait for the egg to drop vs if your egg just dropped the boys are actually faster and will swim to meet it quicker. We'll see at the beginning of November if it's…
  • Forgot to mention...with first son we were trying for a boy and calculated ovulation so this time we tried for a girl....hoping that we did it before the egg dropped....not sure if anyone has read up on this but we won't know until October. (my second son was a surprise and I only had one cycle between him and my older son…
  • It actually took 2 months this time to get pregnant. It was God's perfect timing though! he knew what he was doing. So I made turkey tacos tonight and they were YUMMY but I ate way too much and that's when I get sick. I can't resist though...homemade guacamole too! I usually make my own chips but I ate regular ones today.…
  • I've take it with a couple of instructors and they are different. Some use the mic, some don't. They usually introduce a move then add the hip motions with it. They let you do it first before making more complicated. I've had some who face the mirror and some who face you. It's a fun class that really gets you moving and…
  • Do you pregnant ladies still track your calories? I was eating 1200 or less prepregnancy and now I'm staying closer to or more than 1500....not sure how much more I need to eat. It makes me sick to eat and to not eat for that matter. I only made it to 1500 today because I ate cream cheese icing leftover from a carrot cake…
  • I can also make myself a wreck!! I miscarried before my two babies that I have...any weird feeling makes me crazy. And I didn't want to tell anyone but my dear husband told his friends from church and one of the wifes sent a text message to everyone at church. All my friends knew before I could tell them. WTH!?!?! (heck) I…
  • Hi y'all! I can't remember if I posted anything on here yesterday or not but I just found out I'm pregnant and super excited. This is baby #3 for me. I have two boys....won't mind 3 but would love some more pink in the house! This is our LAST baby no matter what. I'm just about 5 weeks and have a doctor apt August 9 to…
