Newbie...Pregnant Now Due in November
Hello Ladies!
I am currently expecting my first in November. As I near the end of my pregnancy I find myself getting more and more ready to shed these pregnancy pounds. So I decided to join this forum to keep myself motivated. I am also feeling like I have very little control over how much I have gained during this pregnancy so this makes me feel like I have a little more control than before. Well, anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself

Welcome 
I know how anxious you are to not feel like a penguin anymore (been there, twice) but don't try to do too much too fast. You'll need several weeks after delivery just for recovery and adjusting to the new little one, and remember it took your body 9 months to make that baby. It's not unreasonable to take just as long to whip it back into shape. In the meantime, eat healthy and enjoy this time in your life, it really does go by very fast.
