After returning from Mississippi I am back in workout mode. I basically stopped when I started exclusively pumping. I didn't want to risk the chance of hurting my supply. Plus, I was burning 900-1,200 calories by making milk. Good enough for me!
It feels good getting back into the swing of things. Before pregnancy, even during, I loved riding my bike, doing my old school workout videos and doing leg raises and crunches while watching tv. I knew I needed to jump back into things.
I did my Gilad Fat Burning video for the first time with Vivian.
It went surprisingly well. I worked out upstairs which means I have to make it toddler safe. Can't have little one falling down a flight of stairs.
She did well playing by herself. There were a few times she wanted to be at my feet or wanted me to pick her up.
Which I did pick her up once while doing some jumps. Jumping with an 18 pounder was interesting. I ended up putting her in the chair and let her play with the blinds.
She was happy!
What I've learned is that working out is a little more challenging and its okay if you have to stop for a moment if she needs you. Overall, she's going to be a good workout partner. I can't wait to get a bike baby carrier and take her for a bike ride. I also think its great for her to see me working out and being healthy and not lounging around all day. Not that I do that anyway. Hello?! I have a 13 month old!
