I gained a lot of weight with my first pregnancy and had trouble taking it off. Now I'm expecting my second child and I really want to exercise regularly -- but I'm so tired I can't get motivated. How do other expectant mums manage to keep up an exercise routine? And do you have any tips on staying comfortable?

Sounds like me :'( I had the perfect BMI before I gave birth to my 1st child. Afterwards, and it took me about 3 years for me to go back to my previous BMI because the weight just wouldn't come off. After my 2nd pregnancy, it got worse, mainly because I didn't watch my diet and ate whatever I wanted. 5 months post delivery, I was weighing 91kg, BMI of 34. Like what Diana mentioned, it's best if you watch your diet but it's definite that you will gain some weight post delivery. Breastfeeding has been claimed to help with losing weight & I highly recommend doing Jamu tummy wraps to help firm up the tumy area.
