Well Tabs sounds like you have got a really good regime there! Good for you!
Is running bad for you when you are PG? Just curious as WHEN I become PG I will hate to give up my running! Obvioulsy i wud if i needed to and would love to be in the position to have that as a choice! Just Curious

Oh dear Diddle - seems you left your memory in bed when you got up this morning!

The funny thing about the gym is that I had just had a programme devised for me the day before I found out I was pregnant, but they have now reviewed it and changed it just a little for me.

I do some carido work - treadmill, rotex (cross trainer type thingy) and recline bike. The important thing for these is not to go above 70% of theoretical max heart rate, which for me is 140, as this would increase body temp to too high a level for baby. Spend about 35 mins plus cool down time in total on this lot.

I then do a couple of weight things - leg presses and a vertical traction machine - they've lightened the weight so that I'm not overexerting myself now (eg went from 85kg on leg press down to 65kg now).

I'm not allowed to do the abdominal stuff any more, but have a whole range of pelvic floor exercises instead.

And then I tend to swim afterwards to cool off and relax.

Have become very fat over last few years, so trying to change the vowel back to an i!!

Lottielou · 02/06/2005 16:20

LOL good job you have remembered.
It's not waffle it makes sense and i think it is lovely hun x

Diddle · 02/06/2005 16:11

oh bugger, have just remembered that i have 3 kids coming for an hour in 20 mins, was looking forward to finishing, good job i remembered and didn't go out.

think i've lost my mind, my memory is terrible.

MaddyD i meant to say earlier one of my roses has got loads of buds too, ready to burst open as we speak. the other one has no buds and is still growing.
I wonder if it is just a coinsidence that one is blooming and obviously more developed than the other, they really do symbolise the children i ahve lost, the one with the buds the first m/c, and it is bigger and blooming earlier, as the baby would be. and the 2nd not developed as much, as the most recent baby would be. very spooky i think.

hope that waffling made sense.

Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:37

hi Tabs - good to hear from you.
what sort of stuff do you do in the gym? I often wonder how much i will be able to do if i was pg? do you do much or more swimming than anything?

I had visions of grandad fighting a fir too he's ok, very well in himself just a slight imbalance in his blood now.

OP posts:
Tabs · 02/06/2005 15:34

I'm back ladies - sorry to have deserted! Figured I'd better haul my @rse to the gym again, so did that and had a nice gentle swim afterwards.

Lottielou - hope you have a good journey to Norfolk tonight. Will be nice to see you on here in the evenings for a change.

Diddle - hope your grandad is feeling better soon. After Lottie's message I have visions of an elderly gent fighting with a fir tree!!

Strike - good to hear that your doc was encouraging and you're feeling excited again.

Right - off to start making moussaka before I end up spending the whole afternoon mooching round MN again!

strike1 · 02/06/2005 15:32

Laughter is the best medicine, just sorry I can't string a joke together.

talking of grandparents I got a lovely e mail from my gran after I had my m/c. She's 88, bless her! We call her Cyber Gran. Hope you G'dad feels better soon Diddles.

Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:31

lottielou - i'm very pleased that you think that my grandad will be fighting FIR?? i'm chuckling to myself now.

OP posts:
Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:28

strike1 don't worry about getting arrested just plead insanity, i think we could all get away with that.
very pleased to hear that the doctor was so good to you and gave you some positive advice.

OP posts:
Lottielou · 02/06/2005 15:26

Oh LOL, just read the last bit of you message strike! LOL you have made me giggle!

Lottielou · 02/06/2005 15:26

Diddle - No i'm not leaving you huni. I will still be on here a little, probably in the evenings (will make a huge change) as my g'parents have my pc so i will be able to log on to MN there! Yipeeeeee!!
I'm sure your g'dad will be fighting fir again soon. Hugs for diddles g'dad {{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}

Strike - Glad your doc was encouraging for you! Thats just what you need!

strike1 · 02/06/2005 15:15

I'm just back from the doctors. She was very nice and was all encouraging about trying again, so I feel all excited again!

Know what you mean about staring at other pregnant women, I just hope I don't get arrested!

Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:14

i forgot you were leaving me for ages. but i'm pleased you're getting a break.

Grandad had an infection and is on antibiotics, and now has high potassium in his blood so can't go home until they've lowered it. He alright though

OP posts:
Lottielou · 02/06/2005 15:10

OH NOOOOO! That is just awful! Oh gosh how sad!

I am travelling to Norfolk this evening so will not be running tonight, i have to go straight home and pack.
BTW i meant to say the other day, i hope your Grandad is getting better, whats wrong? (if you dont mind me asking)

I think your right, everyone must be extra busy or are just letting us hog the thread this afternoon! Everyone was really chatty earlier, wonder where they have all gone!

HELLLLLOOOOOOOOO????

Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:05

do you think everyone else is working really hard? and thats why they're not on here? or are we just soooo lazy that we can't be bothered to work and would rather be on here.

have you seen on the www.wewantaspringbaby.com thread that milosmum has lost her baby.

OP posts:
Diddle · 02/06/2005 15:04

erm, er? not sure, have one little one left, but he will happily play on his own, and if i interfere he'll tell me to go away. got to visit my grandad again this evening, must do my assignment for my uni course, maybe should do a bit now while little one is playing.
how about you, are you running today?

OP posts:
Lottielou · 02/06/2005 14:49

LOL! I thought i was imagining it!
So what have you got planned for the rest of the day?

Diddle · 02/06/2005 14:46

oh good, thought i'd totally missed it until now, but i'm glad its not long popped up.

OP posts:
Lottielou · 02/06/2005 14:42

I was just thinkning the exact same thing! I have it too and no it hasn't been there all day, it has only just popped up!

Diddle · 02/06/2005 14:39

has anyone else got a picture of some fruit stix at the top of the page, and something saying that conception is sponsered by them?? has that been there all day?

A husband desperate to end an argument offers to buy is wife a new car. She curtly declines his offer by saying, "That's not quite what I had in mind."
Frantically he offers her a new house. Again she rejects his offer, "That's not quite what I had in mind."
Curious, he asks: "What did you have in mind?"
She retorts, "I'd like a divorce."
He answers, "I hadn't planned on spending quite that much."

Once there was a family who was given some venison by a friend. The wife cooked up the deer steaks, and served it to the husband and children. The husband thought it would be fun to have the children guess what it was that they were eating.
"Is is beef?" The daughter Katie asked.
"Nope."
"Is it pork?" the son Willie asked.
"Nope."
"Heck, we don't know, Dad!" Willie exclaimed.
"I'll give you a clue," the Dad said, "It's what your mom sometimes calls me."
"Spit it out, Willie!" cried Katie, "We're eating Asshole!!"

A man was driving home late one afternoon, and he was driving above the speed limit. He looks in his rear view mirror and notices a police car with its red lights. He thinks, "I can outrun this guy", so he floors it.
The cars are racing down the highway -- 60, 70, 80, 90 miles an hour. Finally, as his speedometer passes 100, the guy realizes he can't outrun the cop so he gives up and pulls over to the curb. The police officer gets out of his cruiser and approaches the car.
He leans down and says "Listen mister, I've had a really lousy day, and I just want to go home. Give me a good excuse and I'll let you go."
The man thought for a moment and said, "Three weeks ago my wife ran off with a police officer. When I saw your cruiser in my rear view mirror I thought you were that officer and you were trying to give her back to me!"

Lottielou · 02/06/2005 14:34
