Pregnancy Pilates and Happy 20 Weeks!

I have been wanting to do more at home pregnancy workouts recently. I have been doing yoga a few times a week for the past month but want to do more. I do go to the gym 5-7 days a week, but there are days where I just do not want to go. I like home workouts because I do not have to go anywhere. And I can do the workouts while our son naps 🙂  I finally found a Pilates workout that is really good! At first I was not sure if I could finish the whole 30 minutes but I pressed on. It works you really good, especially while pregnant. I finished the video 1 hour ago and I feel absolutely fantastic now! Try it out and make sure to listen to your body. If you feel pain or discomfort just modify or stop. I am not a personal trainer or dr so make sure to do any workouts at your own discretion.

Happy 20 weeks to me! We are half way through, YEAH! I feel great….so far. I am just not a fan of gaining weight. Ever. Last pregnancy it was completely different. I only could stomach carbs and Mexican food. Fattening! I could not stand the thought of eating anything green. I stopped working out, almost cold turkey. I gained weight fast. It was all things that you shouldn’t do when pregnant. HA! This time around I am trying to continue working out, eating 80% healthy. And, I have gained a healthy 13 lbs so far. That is great because I am right on target. Of course I had my Dr appt at 11 am so I have eaten a few times and drank a ton of liquids. So I might have only gained 10 lbs so far. Either way it is not bad. I was telling my husband that this is how much I weighed when we met. He asked if that was good or bad? I told him…..well, you liked it before.  HA HA. A fact about me: I weigh less married 🙂 Opposite than what most people complain about. I want to look good for my hubby, not lose control of my weight.  Anyway, I am able to feel our little boy more and more. And, I cannot wait until the hubby and son get to feel the baby! I still have not had any “real” cravings. I think things sound good but nothing that I have to have. I am sure Ill get some sort of craving in the next month or so.

Well, I have to start getting our house in winter shape. It was -1 degrees this morning outside. Brrr We are NOT in California anymore HA HA  I have to make more window coverings and door draft stoppers 🙂 Until next time!

Live Happy and Live simple!
