[quote=Anonymous]Not your question - but just know that even if you don't fit it in now the way you'd like, it doesn't mean you won't get back to it!  When I had infants I put so much pressure on myself to try to workout and then just ended up frustrated that a baby not napping long enough or something ruined it.  So I finally just gave up and decided that as long as I was walking / active enough to be healthy, this was going to be a stage of my life where real working out had to take a back seat.

My kids are now 6/4/2 and I work out pretty intensely during the day 4x wk.  I've run a half marathon and I'm now probably the strongest I've ever been and fastest at shorter distances.  There are many fits and starts in keeping it going (kids get sick for 2 weeks that consumes everything and then it take me another 2 weeks to get fully back in routine etc) but overall I feel like its back integrated into my life.

Its great people are able to do it with infants!  I wasn't one of those people and accepting that and revisiting it when kids were more predictable and I was less tired (or maybe just more used to being so tired) is what worked for me[/quote]
