    You could try jogging if you get one of the 3 wheeled jogging prams. I'm getting a season pass to our local pool after Eevee is born; swimming has been great during the pregnancy because it puts less pressure on my joints, especially with my pelvic girdle pain, so I want to introduce her to it at a young age.

    12WBT is good - focuses on nutrition, exercise (core, strength and cardio) and mindset. It's a 12 week program.

    But don't put too much pressure on yourself after having a baby! It's important, especially if you choose to breastfeed, that you're getting enough calories to keep up with a newborn.

    Good luck!

    My sister lost all of her baby weight (~60 lbs) with Insanity. They are definitely ass kickers of a workout but if you can get through them, you see results fast. The torrents online are very easy to find (if you're into not paying for things lol).

    Breast feeding helps alot of women lose weight after pregnancy, my girlfriend went this route + jogging 3-4 days a week at the park and she lost her baby weight. Good luck with your goals!

    Pokemon Go is really encouraging me to take Eevee out in the pram a lot. Ok, time to go- wait, there's a rustle in that bush ahead? Forward!

    I'm pumping 1.5L+ a day now (50+oz for you Americans), which is more than 1000 calories that my body burns from producing it all. It really adds up.

    Damn gurl, isn't it painful to you to have so much milk? My mom used to complain a lot about the pain all while squeezing her breasts on the sink, graceful woman that one is.
    Should donate some of that to the bank!

    Milk banks don't exist in my state. Stupid, I know. We have a chest freezer that we're filling up though, to help when I go back to work. When my milk first came in (day 3) they were gigantic and painfully engorged- I went up to a G cup that day. Now they're settled though, and only hurt when I wake up in the morning and haven't pumped yet. I'm glad I have until October before I'm back at work though, just so I can slowly reduce my number of pumps so I don't ache/leak in class.
    @(you need an account to see links), I'm glad that she got the initial troubles sorted at least. Eevee has a high palate and possible posterior tongue tie, translating to an inability to latch effectively. I've had to pump for her as a result. It's funny how something that is supposed to come so naturally poses difficulties in all sorts of ways for different people. I've had a lot of judgement and naysayers about my decision to exclusively express for her, but it's better than formula and far better than putting her to breast and having her not get enough down.

    We did 7.5km (4.5 mile) today with Pokemon Go; it was by far the most I've done physically since giving birth. I already hurt, so tomorrow my body will no doubt express its displeasure with me. Exercise tends to fuck with supply too, so I'm just going to need to find a routine that keeps me active without sacrificing supply.
