March 18, 2010 I feel like I can’t stop crying these days. I am literally tired, stressed, burned out and unhappy. Physically, my body is so exhausted from carrying the baby, being 9 months pregnant and running around everywhere. Emotionally, I feel alone, unloved and disconnected. Mentally, I’m tired of my cell phone, calculator, notebook and computer. I smile and put on a great face for everyone every day but every night I close my eyes and can’t sleep through…
Mommy Fitness Blog: Head down Count Down!
March 10, 2010Well it seems like his head should be down by now? But I feel more kicking and movement more now than ever! My belly has definitely dropped, I feel like my mid-section has gotten tighter and I am SO tired when I move. It’s hard for me to carry Christian (which I know I shouldn’t be doing)…but what is terrible, is sometimes I am carrying him in one arm and 3 bags in the other! Which is why I’m not…
Delegating my life.
March 10, 2010March 9, 2010 I probably shouldn’t be up right now, but I am. I just finished responding to emails, sending out weekly updates and scheduling phone interviews for upcoming articles. For the past few days I’ve been feeling incredibly anxious as I am planning a Jog-a-thon Fundraiser on April 25th. Yes that is around two weeks after my expected due date. I know it’s crazy, but I’ve been known to do some crazy things in my days. I really wanted…
Love Grows.
March 3, 2010March 2, 2010 It’s 1:47am in the morning. After staring at the wall for half an hour, I decided to get up and start working on paperwork for the next day. This of course, happened after I finished cleaning the house, vacuuming the rug, mopping the floors, scrubbing the stove, wiping the microwave and doing the laundry. I don’t consider this being part of my nesting’ mode (A period pregnant women go through to prepare for her baby’s arrival) I…
Mommy Fitness Blog: last month preggers.
March 2, 2010I’m really feeling this pregnancy now. – I feel like there is a ton of fluid rushing through my body (I’m not swollen or anything…but I definitely feel heavier) – My belly sticks out A LOT. – I get tired around 3pm and usually need to nap daily with my son. (If I’m not working) Last night I went to my parents house to walk uphill on their treadmill (as I am trying to kill two birds with one stone…visit…
Mommy Fitness Blog: I gained 6lbs!
February 25, 2010I’m feeling pretty good right now. However, I still find myself sleepy ALL the time. Not sure if it’s because of allergies (which I never had before) or because of pregnancy (which most people say the cause is.) All I know, is that if I could lay in bed most of the day…I would. My schedule has calmed down a little bit though. Mainly because it will start to pick up again next week. Life usually rolls that way –…
left out.
February 22, 2010
February 22, 2010 I am really hard on myself actually, incredibly hard. Here I am, 33 weeks pregnant, still trying to get 8 things done in one hour while carrying a teething baby and talking on the phone. On Sunday night I missed my nonprofit’s Parent Transformation boot camp. While I was fatigued from working that afternoon, I still managed to put on my gear to get to Sac State that evening.until my fitness coordinator called and asked if I’m…
quiet solitude
February 18, 2010February 17, 2010 I don’t like being around my computer. That’s probably the first reason why I haven’t been updating this site regularly. An underlying reason behind that demise is how busy I’ve been – it seems the last thing I want to do after a long working day running around exhausted with a 13 month old baby and a big belly is to get on my laptop knowing that Christian will start hanging on my leg whining for attention…
Mommy Fitness Blog: I’m getting TIRED.
February 17, 2010Everywhere I go. Baby goes. And. He still likes to be carried everywhere. Afterall, he’s only one years old…thirteen months to be exact. And it get’s me tired! Besides him, sometimes I’m carrying my laptop bag, my purse, groceries, etc. I know I shouldn’t be carrying so much stuff, but I am! I feel pretty good about my fitness so far this week though! On Monday I worked out to Gaiam’s Fat Burning Bootcamp DVD and it was awesome. I…
Mommy Fitness Blog: not posting!?
February 8, 2010Oh wow. I had to look back on dates to see when I last posted and couldn’t believe it was last Wendesday! I’ve literally been swamped since then. I’ve also noticed that I talk a lot about being really busy all the time…and the truth is, is that I AM! I can’t believe my life sometimes. Somtimes it’s literally hard to get out of bed knowing that there is a list of things of things to do, people to call,…
