Month: June 2004

I went to a prenatal yoga session at Breathe Yoga yesterday afternoon. I’ve never done any sort of yoga before, but it really was relaxing. I just had to keep reminding myself to breathe…otherwise, I’d forget while I tried to figure out what else I was supposed to be doing. It’s not a miracle cure, but I think if I keep going it will help with some of the new and exciting back problems I’ve started to experience.

According to the instructor, there are some poses where the baby will be really active. I haven’t been able to feel anything that’s definitely the baby since those three nights I blogged about last week. There are things I think might be, but nothing I can really be sure about. (I’m not too worried yet about the lack of distinct motion, since you’re really not supposed to be able to keep track until about 28 weeks.) I certainly didn’t feel the baby during yoga yesterday, but I think it was because I was concentrating so much on keeping my balance and breathing. Maybe next time…

Boy, it just seems like the days and weeks are flying by lately! We had a good long weekend. We did a bit of outdoor work, like getting some annuals planted (not quite done with that), getting the pool open (although it may be a while before it’s ready to swim in), and getting our outdoor swing assembled (don’t ask the pregnant lady to read the directions). I learned a bit about php in preparation for updating this site, and I managed to get in quite a bit of stitching and knitting time, too!

Of course, now it’s Tuesday, but it feels like a Monday, and we’re going out-of-town for the weekend, so it’s going to end up being a short, hectic week. I do hope it’s a very short week, though, because my ultrasound is on Friday and I really just can’t wait!
