Can I please start working out?

I'm at the Dr...of course they are running behind!!! I loved being pregnant but definitely don't miss all the Dr's appointments and endless waits. I'm surrounded by pregnant women and it's funny to think not even 6 weeks ago I was in their shoes!. Well, more like in their flip flops since they all have swollen feet (I don't miss that either!).

Now I'm waiting and just have two questions for the Doc:

1) When can I start working out?

2) When can I start birth control????

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't be ready for more babies! I say babies since with our past records we could very well have two more!. I'm good with my boys!

Now, who would have thought I would be so excited to hear that I can start working out again?. I mean, ridiculously excited!!! I keep thinking all the things I could do -- run, roller blade, kickboxing, weight training, boot camp!!!.

Sure, there is the one tiny little thing to consider... When will I do all these things since, per my previuos post, I don't always have time to brush my teeth?. We'll tackle that once I get the green light. I may start with some at home videos...and hopefully eventually get a jogging stroller and get out there!.

In other news, my mom left after staying with us for a month and my dad and stepmom came to help!. It's so wonderful to have people around that love the boys and want to help. We started trying a new system that I think it's going to work nicely. I take care of the night shift and then they arrive in time for the 7 am feeding and take over. This means I can start getting some hours of sleep in a row!...which sounds so heavenly!

Dr is ready for me!!!

UPDATE: The answer to both questions is, whenever I want!. Woohoo! I checked and they have the 30-day Shred 1 and 2 videos on on-demand. So I will be starting today!
