Hello all. It's been forever since I've posted here - some of you may remember me. Anyways, I actually just gave birth to twins and I also have a toddler... I'm wanting to get back in the water and I don't know how I'm going to find the time to swim!?!?!?!? Any advice? The twins eat every 3 hours and sleep most of the time, but I would feel awful to leave my hubby w/ 3 kids while I go piddle around in the water! Help!:drown:

    WOW! What an awesome response from all of you!!! It's obvious that it will probably be a good idea for me to get back in... hee! Jim - Excellent point about Dad and kiddos getting some bonding time together! Dorothy - I could even go for 30 minutes! I really missed exercise throughout my pregnancy, threw up left and right and my belly got so big I could barely move! Geochuck/tomtopo/Mark/TJBurk - It is important to me to be a good role model for my kids and also for the hubby - I could either find a place that would watch the kids or everyone can come to the pool. GREG! - HI! I miss you guys! We have "moved", but we still haven't sold our house in OH yet... however, it's the last thing on my mind right now - ha! I hope you are swimming fast (as usual), how is the new coach? Please tell everyone that I said hello - I miss Mike's humor in the wee hours of the morning! Stud - What's up?!?!?! The sarge is back. HA! Fortress - Mommy guilt pretty much sums it up... but, I desperately want to buy a treadmill so I can run, maybe I'll be able to talk the hubby into it just in case I can't get to the pool much. Slowswim - I like what you wrote, fathers are definately not babysitters. Nellie - I think I may try the "odd" hours thing first and just hopefully everyone will stay asleep while I go swim, that would be the perfect situation and erase that Mommy Guilt!!! THANKS AGAIN EVERYBODY, YOU ALL ARE INCREDIBLE!!! :applaud:
