It’s still hard to believe there’s a viable human growing inside me!
It’s been almost two weeks of “taking it easy” — low-impact cardio and restricted strengthening at my OB’s recommendation — and honestly, it’s been harder than I expected to feel like I’m doing enough.
But this season’s strength isn’t measured in reps or load. It’s learning to rest and trust my body.
The journey never looks how I imagine it will, but I’m deeply grateful for the ride.
PS: the bump is much more formidable in person 🤰
