@cuteness20 I worked out all my second pregnancy with strength and cardio. I have had such a hard time coming back in the 18mo since I’ve had baby. Now pregnancy with #3, and feeling a little deflated about not seeing the results I’ve been working for since then. But that’s my own issue with...

@quilly You don’t have to justify your reasonings here. Buy a shirt with some sassy words about working out and pregnancy. Or just look them dead in the eye and say “I’m not pregnant”

@boyofthefuture This seems 50/50 on the breastfeeding. I EBF and I had so much trouble losing weight because anytime I did it too fast my supply tanker. That and having PPD with my first was super difficult

@kira_b24 PORQUE

@kira_b24 That is an incredible name and I hope you made a placard

@cuteness20 Relaxin can be a B. Plus, you have vastly more blood pumping through your body, sustaining a life inside of you; that takes energy from you every second of the day even if you cannot actively feel it.

@erinbeery Sounds about right, your body is working overtime to finish up cookin the baby. I won’t give my calorie burn bc it varies so much between person to person, type of workout, etc. I notice exhaustion creeps in sooner at the end of pregnancy of course

@afolkytouch I like gal Higdon’s too! I usually grab an intermediate plan and modify it to include the speed workouts from the higher plans. I can’t quite do the high mileage of the advanced so that seems like a good compromise. Good luck with your races!!!

@afolkytouch Hey! Just had my third kiddo three weeks ago, so it’s def still fresh in my mind. I did! I trained for a half this pregnancy bc it lined up to being 30wks preggo, and I can usually run until about then. I really did, I only did 18-25mpw during pregnancy, and my pace was like...

@afolkytouch My feet grew, but unevenly! The right is slightly larger than the left, but thankfully I size up for running shoes in general, and I must have been on the “shorter” end of a size, because even post preggo I’m still in the same size. That being said, I think mine are permanently like...

@elizar123 Just do your best, everyone’s recovery is different!
