39 weeks - small watermelon
Monday - 39 weeks today. Weight upon waking 174.8. Scheduled for elective induction. Woke up several times during the night, but got up for the day at 4:45, then to the treadmill, walked 3 miles in 53:30 minutes. finished at 5:55. Weight after workout 173.2. I called hospital at 7, they told me to call back at 10. Fingers crossed that they can get me in today. It won't kill me to have to wait another day or two but I'd really rather not.
- Went to hospital at 12:30, pitocin started at 2, water broke at 3:30, dilated to 5 at 6pm, baby boy born at 7 - 7 lbs 8 oz, 19 inches long, he's so little!
Tuesday - 2 am - 2 Wonderful pigeon flows, so nice to have free range of movement again.
Home from hospital at 8:45 pm. Walk and jog on treadmill at 9:15, finished 3 miles in 43 minutes, done at 9:58, bath, weight 165.8
Wednesday - shoveled the driveway a little bit this morning. Was going to exercise tonight, but were waiting for visitors from the ward that I thought were coming at 8. I got ready to exercise at 9, and then they showed up. And after they left the baby needed me, so all i did today was shoveling. But after being thrown off at the hospital (not a lot of veggie servings given in those hospital meals! too bad) I got all my
daily dozen today, hooray!
Thursday - 3 miles this morning. Started 6:36, did .5 miles, then pause to feed baby. 7:12 started again - did 5 minutes then a 60 second center plank on repeat until I finished 2.5 miles. Did quite a bit of jogging, finished 2.5 in 32:50, so total time of 39:16, not bad! Plus 5 one minute center planks on hands. Good workout.
Friday - Shoveled the driveway at 2 and did a 5 minute feel good flow at 11pm
