They say you won't feel yourself for nine months post-partum and it is so true. I am just starting to feel like I have the strength, flexibility and energy that I used to...I think I actually forgot that I used to feel like this. The no-sleep does a number on your flexibility...makes those early morning classes so much more painful. On the reverse side of it, it makes me remember why this yoga is so good. The "therapeutic" is pouring out of every posture.
I am really looking forward to the 30-day challenge, simply for the opportunity to make yoga a priority again. To give myself a good reason to get up at 5:30 am for yoga when I was just up at 4:30 nursing. Maybe she'll be sleeping through the night by then. Ha ha ha. If she's only waking up twice I'll be ecstatic. I read the other day that the average mom sleeps 3 hours a night for the first nine months and then 5 hours a night the next two years. What can you do but laugh?
