But yeah, the laundry basket might be too heavy for me. 😂
All jokes aside, I know people mean well when they offer to help or tell me to take it easy, and I genuinely appreciate it all the help I can get. Some days getting out for a walk is enough to make this girl swell up like a balloon. 🎈
But somewhere along the way, I think we forget that being pregnant doesn’t automatically mean being incapable.
I’ve spent nearly a decade building strength, control, and awareness through more than just Pilates, and that doesn’t just disappear because I’m growing a baby.
Does movement feel different right now? ABSOLUTELY. Am I modifying things? You bet. Are there days when I feel like I’ve never worked out a day in my life? 100000%. 😂 The sciatica pain is insaneeee sometimes!!
But there are also days when I surprise myself with what my body is still capable of, especially with an extra 20 ish pounds along for the ride.
Pregnancy has taught me a lot about slowing down, listening to my body, and knowing when to adjust. But it’s also reminded me just how incredible the human body really is! ⭐️
And for the record, this isn’t me saying every pregnant woman should be hanging from a Cadillac. This is years of training, experience, and knowing my own body. I am, quite literally, a professional. Which means, I know my days hanging from here are dwindling, because I can feel it, and i’m soaking up every good day I can find right now!
So yes, I’ll absolutely ask for help when I need it. But until then, I think I’ve got this. 😉💛
