Today I got on my mat. First time in quite a few weeks. My husband and the kids spent the night away and having the house to my self I spent the free time the best I could. It was nothing magical, nothing special, but it made me feel great. I followed a 35 min… Continue reading Starting up pregnancy yoga

12 weeks today!
Finally I have reached 12 weeks pregnant! I'm starting to feel confident that this pregnancy will give me a tiny, pink, crying baby. Finally I start to look forward to what's coming and I'm happy to have another baby joining our family. Tomorrow I'll have an ultrasound, hopefully confirming that everything looks fine. If everything… Continue reading 12 weeks today!
Still pregnant…
Here I am. Still pregnant. 11 weeks today. I can hardly believe it. This is my first post in 4 weeks. I didn't think it would take this long for me to find energy to write. The first trimester is tough! The last four weeks I've done nothing but work, spend a few hours with… Continue reading Still pregnant…
Pregnancy meal plan
I'm starting to get my meal plan right. It is not very detailed... I've realized that to be able to work full time, take care of my two children and my dog, exercise and grow a baby inside me, I can't spend too much energy planning my meals. It needs to be simple, healthy and… Continue reading Pregnancy meal plan
Update on nervous pregnant lady
Today it's a week since I figured out I'm pregnant. It seems so long ago. My mind has been completely obsessed by pregnancy and babies and do and don'ts and safe and unsafe and healthy and healthy enough. I'm quite satisfied with my new exercise plan, but I have trouble figure out my eating. I need… Continue reading Update on nervous pregnant lady
Back on meditation
I'm back on meditation. I need it more than ever. Every time my head starts spinning and the fear of losing hits me, I'm back on meditation. Empty my head. Focus on breath. Focus on right here, right now. My heartbeat drops. My tension relieves. I'm ready to cope. It's simply amazing what meditation… Continue reading Back on meditation
Rollercoaster
I'm on a rollercoaster. A month a ago I decided to be content with our two wonderful children. After two miscarriages I needed to shift my focus. This weekend me and my husband decided we really wanted our family to include one more of these amazing little creatures that drive us mad and fill our… Continue reading Rollercoaster
Meditation lost
I haven't done my meditation since before the weekend. It somehow feels like I've lost it. I know all I have to do is get back on the mat. I need it now. We've again decided to try to get pregnant and I can sense the mud start clinging on me again. I need to… Continue reading Meditation lost
The good talk
Me and my husband had one of those, the good talk, over the weekend. Or several, actually. It has been a long time since we could start a conversation and finish it without any disturbance. Our communication lately have been mainly about everyday chores and logistics. We have had a rough winter, both of us.… Continue reading The good talk
7kg down in 4 months: weekend in Copenhagen
A grownups only weekend in Copenhagen was probably not the best for my diet. It was very good for the rest of me and the relationship to my husband. It was great to long to see my children again, and not to dread being alone with them for too long. But my diet suffered. It… Continue reading 7kg down in 4 months: weekend in Copenhagen
