I haven't posted in quite some time - I've been really depressed about how this year has panned out for me. This definitely wasn't how I had envisioned my year to go...
I'm now almost 14 weeks pregnant with a cast on my left leg and using crutches to get around. Not fun. Not to mention that I haven't been able to work out since May. I had always thought that IF I became pregnant - I would be superfit and still running...so much for that idea!!
The first trimester of my pregnancy was really rough - not only was I in a walking boot for the majority of the time, but I had severe nausea and vomiting. I've just started my 2nd trimester and thank goodness the nausea seems to have passed!! Hallelujah! Just a few more weeks with this cast on and hopefully things will be back to normal - well at least as normal as they can be for a pregnant lady.
I still plan on heading out to San Francisco in October, although I won't be participating in the race as planned. I wanted to try to walk it, but with my injury and being off my foot for so long, I don't think it's a good idea to risk it. I'm definitely way out of shape now. Maybe I'll try again in a few years. I miss running so much.
I don't think i've quite gotten a hold on becoming a mom yet either - it all seems quite foreign still. I haven't felt the baby move, so to me, I just feel fat. I don't like feeling fat - never have been this big - EVER. I don't think I'm going to be one of those women who look like they have a basketball under their shirts either. I think this baby will make its presence known in all parts of my body...blubber city. I've already started planning my workout regimen for after the baby is born. I have no idea how I'm going to juggle work, a baby, my home, and my sanity - but other women somehow make it work...CRAZINESS.
