It is hard! But it just makes it feel that much better when I'm done.Kelly @ Running Kellometershttp://runningkellometers.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005464141741044836.post-48202641604914075982013-03-18T21:30:57.964-05:002013-03-18T21:30:57.964-05:00Thanks Michelle!

I definitely pinned it and have it saved for a few weeks/months down the road! <br /><br /><br />I'm enjoying it right now, specifically since the nausea is over! Lol.

Sometimes I wish I could have!<br /><br />I did feel better and enjoy running again between 13-24 weeks (after that I was done), so hopefully the same will be true for you. Working out when pregnant can be challenging, but it's definitely worth it!<br /><br />Exciting that now you're at the fun part - I hope you can enjoy it!!

In fact, I sat right in front of it, just in case (and it came in handy one day). <br /><br /><br />Now that you mention it, I still want that pie that I never got yesterday! The biggest thing I've been craving is cheeseburgers. I've had them for dinner the last 2 days and I'm thinking about having one again tonight.

I've been looking into doing a prenatal yoga class and my friend Jill just offered me a prenatal pilates DVD that I'm going to try out.

I don't like the look or consistency of chicken but I'm all about the beef. (Beforehand, it was the other way around). I've been feeling much better the past 2-3 weeks and I think the nausea has finally run its course! When I switched taking my multivitamin with lunch instead of breakfast, that helped. :)Kelly @ Running Kellometershttp://runningkellometers.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005464141741044836.post-4032986366731979632013-03-14T21:59:03.951-05:002013-03-14T21:59:03.951-05:00Awww you're so cute.

Where do those pregnant women puke? <br /><br />I'm really curious what foods I'll crave if I'm ever pregnant. Even today, I posted about pie on Facebook, and Robert came home with cookies.

I know she does yoga, and I think she takes a lot of walks too. Not the same as running, of course, but it's a nice compromise. I think it's good to listen to your body on this, and wow especially working as much as you were, because taking care of yourself and that baby is the most important thing!<br /><br />Craft soda is a fun idea :) I'd recommend Stewart's Orange 'N Cream, and Berry Lemonade and Fu Fu Berry by JonesAnnehttp://annereallyblogs.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005464141741044836.post-11937049277790911932013-03-14T16:08:08.213-05:002013-03-14T16:08:08.213-05:00I'd much rather sleep than run too :) you made...I'd much rather sleep than run too :) you made a good choice there!<br /><br />You're making the right decision in listening to your body and stopping when things don't feel right.

I agree with the thought of not forcing anything that hurts, period, whether during running or any other time. And pregnancy is such a precious time - enjoy it as much as you can!!!

I developed a keen sense of smell and couldn't stand the smell of a perfume of a co-worker and the idea of any kind of ground beef, burger or taco made me want to hurl, but I would gladly eat a steak. I felt a little sick (never throwing up), but I ate lots of lipton noodle soup (funny, the boys both love that soup today). I felt like when I ate that for breakfast it helped me feel better. I'm not kidding, I think it ate it for breakfast and lunch every day for about two months.<br /><br />I loved Stewarts Cream Soda.

It doesn't work out too often since once I wake up I want to get out running and can't get back to sleep!

Being super tired out of no where was one of the things that made me think I was pregnant, when I was, so I know how you are feeling :-) I was also super nauseous when I was pregnant with my girls, I carried saltines with me everywhere. Ginger candies and mint gum helped me too.

At first I was frustrated and disappointed because I had seen so many other folks do so much when I felt so miserable. But, I had to buck up and realize that everyone is different and every body handles pregnancy different... and that every pregnancy is different too!<br /><br />I love taking the weekly shots.

Strange, I never got one of those caffeine withdrawal headaches they always talk about. Baby didn't want it so baby didn't get it. Cigarette smoke is another thing that makes me GAG! <br /><br />I'm very much looking forward to the 2nd trimester.
