Jellybean Watch – Week 9

by Zoey @ Good Googs on August 30, 2010

The body is weak. Very weak.

This week I figured (in all of my wisdom) that as I wasn’t wracked with morning sickness I should get moving again and actually do something akin to exercise or possibly risk actually becoming part of the couch.

Exercise involved step-ups (at home), yoga (at a new class) and packing boxes/stripping skirting boards (an awful yet effective type of exercise). It’s fair to say, my body and my barely existent muscles are screaming in pain today.Although I do enjoy my happy endorphins, pain or no pain. And I am pleased not to be repeating my first pregnancy impersonation of a sloth. Even though I did it so well.

I was meaning to post some belly pictures this week and just swallow that embarrassment about my pudgy bits into a dark, damp hole somewhere, but I had a bit of a computer issue that took over on the weekend, so next week it is.

I have felt alot of baby growing this week, which is very exciting. And only a couple of weeks until my scan when I can actually see the result of all that stretching and expanding that’s been going on.

    I couldn’t seem to avoid that pregnancy sloth, soon as I stopped moving I just fell asleep. :D

    I wanted sooo badly to be one of those fit pregnant people. Swearing up and down that I would not eat all the food all the time because you’re NOT really eating for 2. Yeah….oops. I did yoga like 10 times the whole pregnancy. Fat fat fat, though the belly hid it well. Too bad if all shifts into weird places after the baby is born, LOL.

      Yeah I’ve had a few days where the jellybean was doing some serious growing and I could not stop eating! That’s my story anyway ;-)

    I can’t believe you’re thinking about and doing exercise!! I was definitely part of the couch at 9 weeks! And remember it was about that time that my clothes stopped fitting and I seemed to be getting ‘thicker’!

    So exciting! xxx

      I’ve managed to start exercising although today I went for a long walk and I realized how incredibly unfit I am!
