    Looking for C section experiences

    I think I was able to get right back into things after my 6 week check up because I have worked out for the better part of my entire life and throughout pregnancy (def scaled back preg but stayed active) and so that muscle memory came in clutch and I’d say if anything I think I’m even stronger...

    Looking for C section experiences

    @praskovia Had a c section and not gonna lie, the first like 48 hours was rough. This was also due to the fact that I have some condition where I metabolize anesthetics exponentially fast so my spinal tap was gone within 30 min and I felt everything. That said, once I got over that 48 hour mark...

    Husband running a 2 day race a month after I’m due

I formula fed from the start so my husb and I split...

    Running so much slower!

    @sara716 Yeah I have a mockingbird now that I remember too haha 🙈 but I swear they somehow all get used lol. I would 100% rather walk than drive so we put a lot of miles on those things.

    Running so much slower!

    @sherithorb Other piece of advice is once they are born, put them in the stroller from the start so they are just used to it and like it. My daughter did her naps in the stroller so I could get my miles in from day 1 till like 8 months and then started napping in her crib. 100% invest in a good...

    Running so much slower!

    @sherithorb I read this study that said when you are pregnant your body is being pushed to the absolute max that it’s like running a marathon so yes, it makes complete sense that anything on top of that would be so draining. We sound v similar in running and BQ 2x. Prior to getting preg I had...
