isn't he so cute........


Getting ready to move

Yes, we move on Thursday. Mum is looking after Jay for the day while we move, then not long for our trip to Melbourne. We just heard last night my mother-in-law is in hospital after taking another pill overdose and she is in a coma so I'm not sure what is going on. We thought she was better after coming to Perth and being unwell she spent a month in a clinic and was fine but looks like that is not the case. Depending on what happens over the next few days we may bring the trip forward and make a mercy dash over there. Timing is not good and it makes it all so much harder with a baby but that is what happens.

Weight wise, I have only lost 1kg since I last blogged. I have been training hard and eating very well but according to Josh its all the post pregnancy hormones that is hindering it, and I shouldn't focus on the weight just on my appearance and I must say I can say a bit of a change. I suppose I was hoping that my 12 week challenge would completely change the way I look, but so soon after pregnancy this is not the case. Some women are very lucky and it just falls off, me I have to work damn hard and I tell you I just feel like giving up cause it is hard. Some days I take Jay to the gym creche just so I can fit my workouts in. I have my days when I am so tired that I struggle so much with my workout which makes it extra hard. I have decided to stop worrying about my weight and just to focus on doing something each day and eating very healthy and then the body will come.

I still haven't got around to studying for my PT, as mentioned in my previou posts Jay doesn't sleep much during the day so its impossible and then by the time the evening comes it is my time to relax before bed after the rush of bathing and feeding Jay, cooking dinner and cleaning up.

Has it been that long?

It's been far too long since I last post I'd be surprised if anyone is reading it. Anyway I am still here just been really busy. Jay is going well, we have his reflux under control. He has gone from no sleep during the day to having 45-60 mins throughout the day. He will be up for about and hour then down for 45 mins and up for an hour and so on. At least its better than no sleep but he won't sleep anymore than this. Still really good at night. He goes down at about 6pm, wakes about 3.30am for a feed then about 7.30-8.00am. Hubby does the first feed, I do the second and then when he goes back down about 9.30am I head to the gym. All is going well, I have lost 4kgs in 4 weeks and I still have a red wine here and there so I'm pleased with my progress. I personally cannot see the difference but I've had a few people come up to me at the gym and comment and how much weight I've lost. I'm down to 64kg but ideally would like to be 54 kg so I have tightened my nutrition as of today.

We are going to Melbourne for 2½ weeks on June 9th and also moving on May 24th, so busy times ahead. I just don't know where the days are going. Jay will be 12 weeks old on Monday!
