27 weeks, 5 days

Alrighty, today was a good solid work day. I had about an hour to run between work and heading to a friend's house, but it was pouring outside when I left my office to run and I was at work, meaning that the ocean wind was whipping hard rain at everybody. So, I scrapped the running idea, which I can do because I'm pregnant! Clearly, if I were actually training, I would absolutely run. After visiting a friend, picking up Luke from work, and eating dinner at home, I began my new routine of prenatal yoga. I think I'll try to do it every other day, as it isn't strenuous, and it is super soothing. Today, I did a hip opener routine (which is a bit of a challenge for us runners). My hips will likely be a bit sore tomorrow, but I suppose it is good training for the main event, eh? I got a good tip from a friend today on absorbing iron effectively - so I'm going to start eating my iron rich foods with acidic food (thank you, OB). Today was day 2 of double the iron supplement and day 2 of beef. I made a delicious stew yesterday but, between my beef binge and brother Luke's appetite, we've already gone through the whole thing!
