Burn baby burn

Baby daddy said to blueberry: Mommy is going to the gym now so that she can get sexy again to make a little brother or sister for you!

How I appreciate TB's unconditional support!! He makes sure I have some "me" time so that I can go to the gym and I get to hit the gym almost every day now. Wow!! I couldn't even imagine because 2 months ago, I didn't think I would be able to do so this easily knowing that schedules would be all crazy. He loves babysitting while playing video game or watching any Michigan game. That's actually the only time the TV would be on. No, we won't let blueberry watch TV.

Going to the gym truly me makes me feel alive again. Well, not that my life is bad. I am still trying to adjust to the mommyhood one day at a time so bear with me if I sometimes sound very negative. It might be the reason why I am short, according to baby daddy.

As I am trying to work out all the fat and calories, I am, at the same time, worrying about how to maintain enough calories to produce milk. Good thing is that my son has been gaining weight so whatever I am doing, should be the right thing, though I am not really losing weight. BUMMER! This is some hard work I have to say even though my diet has been very healthy.

Sometimes healthy diet is not how I can produce the most milk. So I let myself eat more, more often, and eat desserts, which rarely happened before if you know me - I am not much of a sweet tooth. Even though I have to work extra hard to get back to the perfect shape and this process might take longer than I expect because of breastfeeding, my first priority now is definitely to feed my son. Hey, don't I sound like a good mom!

Spring is around the corner. I am giving myself more time than I would before to get into shape. I am currently holding out for buying new clothes (and shoes. I think my shoe size is back to before).

Today at the gym I was looking at myself in the mirror as I was doing dead lifts, I saw the resemblance of blueberry and me. This makes me happy. He is really my son!
