Fit & Firm: Perseverance
Nicole King | Domesticated Momma in Fitness Blogaholic, For the love of parenting, Just Between Us, New Mommy Blogaholics - 7 comments - posted on Jul 12th, 2012I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy in February of 2011. It was a home birth. Such a beautiful and happy moment. I loved (and love) him more than he will ever know. The one person I failed to love after his birth was myself. I had a very rocky pregnancy with Cameron and prior to my pregnancy with Cameron, I lost another baby at 12 weeks. I’m very blessed in every essence of the word. There was just always that unhappy part of me. I carried some of the weight of the miscarriage on myself and continued to … Continue reading

Reality Check, Holy Crap!
Amanda DeGrace in Fitness Blogaholic, Just Between Us, New Mommy Blogaholics - 2 comments - posted on Feb 10th, 2011Yep, baby boy will be 9 months on Valentines Day. I had this notion that I would be back in the swing of my fitness routine, training all my clients again with a busy schedule and still fitting in my own workouts when I was 3 months postpartum. The idea of taking on a lot of clients again and working out daily was thrown out the window as I walked around my house like a zombie each day from not sleeping the night before. I thought I would be back in to my pre-pregnancy clothes already. I am SOOOO not … Continue reading
