goodbye glory days?

yesterday officially marked the start of my 3rd trimester.

i went out to lunch with Preggo#1 (see previous post), and she happily shared her stories of sleepless nights, 6-hour work days (because she "just can't go on nitro mode longer than another 30 minutes"), the general feeling of heaviness and tiredness.

maybe i will feel that in a month or two. but right now, i still feel good. i have days of feeling heavier than usual, and i do wobble while walking already. i feel more comfy leaning back a little while walking. it helps ease that feeling like i'm gonna fall forward, fall flat on my face. hehe! =P

i have to keep my exercise routine for as long as i can. i think it's helping me cope. i'm doing at least 20 minutes of 0.8 mph walking on the elliptical. i usually walk up to half a mile, and it chalks up to around 40 minutes, burning a hundred calories. i watch my heart rate though, i can't overheat. i'm good up to 135 bpm, but when i hit 140, i slow down. and when i can't talk anymore, that means i have to stop and catch my breath first. this seldom happens, but it does, when i'm not paying attention. hehe!

now that i am on my 3rd trimester, it's really time to start crossing out those items on our to-do list. time flies. we can't wait to meet pistoy! =D
