Good Heart Rate and Tuesday's Workout
>> November 17, 2009
Did I mention my first prenatal appointment on this blog? She checked my blood pressure- really good it was 107/60. She asked me if I worked out after taking my blood pressure and I said yes. She said my heart rate is awesome at 53~! This is going to be the BEST pregnancy yet! I've worked so hard to get healthy and will continue working out. It lessens the nausea and makes me feel sooo energetic.
Tonight, I went to the gym with my husband. Not much exciting happened there. There was a gym-ful of half naked basketball players next door. Not that I was watching-gross- but they were loud.

Oh, I take it take it back, we did have something happen. We brought 6 of the 7 kids with us. Half of them were in pajamas and all supposedly passed "dad's" inspection. I hopped on the arc trainer and noticed Athena (the autistic 6 year old) wearing her baby sisters sleeper! It was stretched too tight, but she was happy as a clam in it. No way- she had to go home and change. LOL
Anyway, I had a great hour long cardio session followed by calisthenics (abs and push-ups). I also ran a mile. I took a two week running break due to nausea- but I'm back. I don't like falling behind. Here are Tuesday's stats:
Arc Trainer: Miles-1.17 Calories-345 Minutes-30
Run: Miles-1.01 Calories-102 Minutes-15
Elliptical: Miles-1.63 Calories-181 Minutes-15
Calisthenics: Calories-100 Minutes-20
Totals:
Miles- 3.81
Calories- 728
Minutes-80

Sounds like you are doing it right! What a lucky baby to get all that exercise and good for you food. I love seeing moms care for themselves -- before and after the baby!
When pregnant moms exercise in the right way, the baby to be born too would be healthy. I have heard it is the best way to have a normal and easy confinement without much pain.
