[quote=Anonymous]I’m a former pro athlete and personal trainer and my kids still kick my butt. I had easy, no issue pregnancies and births... and then it started to go bad! I got carpel tunnel from carrying my big baby, pulled my back out several times getting him out of the crib, fell down a half flight of outdoor stairs stopping him from falling down the stairs and then gave birth to #2 and stopped sleeping. I was so tired one morning I yanked opened the cabinet door and it hit me in the eyeball which required me to wear a patch for a few weeks. Then my oldest broke his elbow and got in bed with us and broke my nose. I had to drive myself to the hospital, blood all over my T-shirt, so DH could stay with the kids. I’ve been hit in the face with the backs of their heads more times than I can count. And now it’s running after them (4 and 6) and they never go in the same direction. Being “in shape” doesn’t mean jack. Being a mother is hard work - like coal miner hard work. Being “Toned” doesn’t help. [/quote]
