Log for Expectant Mothers??

Anyone want to join this thread?

I have been very bad at working out since I've been pg (actually even since before I was pg). But, this week, I started a workout tape (so far every other day). I would prefer to walk, but it's just WAY TOO cold out for me, so I bought Kathy's Smith's tape. It's totally cheesy, but seems to cover the basics for a moderate workout. I do walk to and from the train for total of 20 mintues a day.

Obviously, my goal right now is not to trim down, but just get fit for labor and delivery and for motherhood! I also have already put on 11 pounds in 18 weeks, and I only want to gain a total of 25 max, since I was about 10-15 lbs overweight pre-pregnancy and I'm only 5 feet tall.

Nina, I am not yet in your 'shoes' but I just wanted to bump this and mention that this is a great idea.

Being fit during delivery makes it easier (or so I heard)
