I love reading this article. I must go over it atleast once a week. It really keeps me motivated and going strong. I am 17 weeks pregnant and was training for a Figure competition at the time of conception. Although it was a wonderful suprise I was worried about my workouts. Everyone told me to relax and not do anything for the first trimester...so that's what I did. Ofcourse I got ansy and had to get back in there. I read this article and it motivated me to get back on a regular, but light training regimen. I'm back to teaching aerobics, walking in between clients (I'm a personal trainer) and lifting light weights. (Following the guidlines ofcourse) Our bodies are shaped differently, however I look at the pictures of you 27 weeks pregnant and use that as my goal. I want to stay as fit and healthy as possible for both me, my baby and yes, even my husband. This is a life altering experience for the better and I want to enjoy every minute of it.
