Is this your first baby?

This will be my second little midget but I didn't run during the 1st pregnancy. I didn't get hooked until my first one drove me batshitcrazy and I realized running was a great stress reliever.

I don't half-ass anything

Congrats. I ran during both of my pregnancies - although with my second I was forced onto the elliptical by my doc after 6 months...

Good luck keeping it up!

Bring it on.

Congrats Smile Now, let's just hope your uterus doesn't fall out while running...

I just hit the 5 month mark and I also hit 500 miles on foot and a little over 200 on my bike! I plan on sticking with it as long as possible but the heat is slowing me down so I may be biking more. I joke that I'm growing a triathlete - we run and bike while she swims!

Very cool! Happy to hear that things continue to go well. Hope the Summer is not particularly hot. I avoided heat issues during later pregnancy by getting knocked-up in May and delivering in Feb. Big grin

Great job Kunland!! Keep it up! Have you started wearing the 'yes I asked my doctor' shirt yet?

Not yet - I've been too lazy to actually make it! It's been so flipping hot the past two days (95 degrees) that I've just been going all Nat-Geo style and letting my big pregnant belly hang out while I run in my doubled up sports bras. Hey, if you got it (belly) - flaunt it! Shocked

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and plan on trying that this coming week. Running at 6am without a toddler in a joggy stroller helps too!

I did another Nat Geo style run today with my big ol' belly hanging out. I'm 6 months now so I'm much larger now. I figure if people want to stare, they can look all they want. Plus, it kind of makes me feel like a bad ass mother runner! Big grin

You would get a honk and a holler from me. Keep up the good work.

I am so impressed! You are going to bounce back so quickly after you deliver! I bet you feel better than the average pregnant mom now too. I want to see a running picture of you! I bet you look incredible!
