Ever since my nine week old was born, I was determined to get back to the gym and get back in shape as quick as I could. And let's face it, even though I already have a two and a half year old, I had forgotten what not getting regular sleep does to ones body. Bottom line, I have a hard time getting a work out in when I'm exhausted day in and day out.
With my oldest, I was lucky enough to have a baby that was sleeping through the night at six weeks -- yes I said SIX WEEKS! It was what I got used to and I know that most new moms aren't that lucky. With my second baby, I had it much different. Not only does he not sleep though the night, he has been congested since birth, which makes it even harder for him to sleep at times and on many occasions has woken him up.
Long story short, I have had a difficult time getting to the gym on a regular basis. One thing I would like to start implementing is a regular yoga regime if I can. Not sure if I will be able to make it work, but it is something I would like to aim for. Ultimately, my fitness goal is to squeeze in three outings a week to the gym, which will not only get me out of the house, but get me back on the fitness train. After all, I have always had a special love for the gym and the way getting in a good cardio session in makes you feel afterwards.
I plan on posting some fitness routines that have helped get me back in shape after baby, so please stay tuned!
Until next time!
