Staying Healthy

It's not an easy task when you're exhausted and all you want to do is rest and satisfy your cravings, but staying healthy when expecting is important.
What do I do? I try to stay active. Prenatal yoga is a great way to do so. It's something you can do in the comfort of your own home. The dvd I use its nice and calm. Simple easy stretches that make sure I move at least thirty minutes a day. For me it has a bonus: it helps my restless leg syndrome to ease up.
Walking is a good way to stay active too. As the weather gets nicer I find myself outside more and more. Today I actually went for a hike! Instead of driving to the grocery store for that one thing you need, walk instead. Fide needs to go potty? Take him for a quick walk.
These are just two of the things I do to get myself moving. And I am not very good at a regular schedule but I shoot to do my yoga twice a week and walk whenever I get the opportunity.
Hydration is important too. I have always been bad at drinking plenty of water. I have to really make a conscious effort to even get half of what you should drink when your pregnant.
Eating right. Yeah, I suck at that too. But I try to always have a healthy snack in my fridge or pantry. And when I make a boxed meal (I'm not fantastic at cooking) I try to throw in a healthy side. Incorporating little things like that help me make healthier choices.
