This pregnancy is a blessing just like my other 2, I thought trying and trying for 6 months was tough emotionally I can’t imagine going a year or more with the pain you feel each month of not being pregnant.  So I am truly grateful we are able to conceive naturally, and will never take it for granted.  The one problem we did run into with both pregnancies was my husband’s testosterone levels being too low which can cause taking longer to conceive, any testosterone supplements can decrease the sperm count drastically.

I have been so excited to share my pregnancy journey with you.  This is my 3rd pregnancy and very different from the others, for the last 3 years I have been working hard on getting strong and into great shape.  Living a healthy lifestyle has become part of my life, and I don’t plan on it changing now I am pregnant.   I am feeling great so far.  I have had no morning sickness and still keeping up with my workout routine consisting of weight lifting and cardio.  My hardest time of the day is in the afternoon after lunch, I try my hardest to keep moving at work or when I am home and drink lots of water to stay hydrated.  At this point I am forcing myself to eat veggies, which is weird because I love all veggies.  I crave starchy carbs, dairy and protein.  I know for me and the babies sake eating healthy and staying active is important, I will be strong for delivery, and have a quicker recovery.

I am entering week 13 on May 22nd, the last week in my first trimester.  My kids are so excited, and I know they will be great help when the baby gets here.  My 3 year old is a little care taker and will be all the help I need.  I have put a lot of pressure on myself to be making enough to stay home with the baby when the time comes so I don’t have to go back to work, but I am taking a step back and just doing what I love the Universe will guide me the rest of the way.  I am excited to share more on my fit pregnancy journey and hope you enjoy following me.
