My daughter does "duct" work.

Friday? Please and thank you!

Holy Mother of Joseph and Mary!!!  I am gloriously S.O.R.E!  I deemed yesterday, "kick my rear-lunge day."  I did not disappoint myself. 

Cardio:
3.25miles in 30 min.

Weights:
Reverse lunges(haha I typed lunches at first) 2x10/leg-30lb barbell
pushups-2x20
Split Lunge jumps 2x1/leg
Dips 2x15
Curtsy lunges 2x10/leg-30lb barbell
pushups 2x20
Swing through lunges 2x10/leg 30lb barbell
Dips 2x15
V-ups 2x15
Russian twists 2x30sec.

Let me tell you, my rear loves me and hates me.  I'm pretty sure the soerness will be gone by tomorrow because I am running in my first race since I got pregnant with Ava.  My roommate from college and I are running in a 5 mile Turkey Trot in the morning.  The longest I have ran is over 3 miles but I am not worried.  The only reason I stop around 3 is because I ONLY do 30 min of cardio at the gym.  So however far I get in that 30 minutes is how far I run. Last night, I could have kept going, so I am not worried at all about tomorrow morning.

No on to mama matters.... 
(FYI-This part is about my boobs, so if you care, continue on, if not, see you at the next post =)

Last night, my right boob started getting sore on the way to the gym.  You will probably find this hysterical, but our routine to the gym is Clint drives and I pump.  Yes, I pump.  My pump has the car attachment, so I don't have such heavy boobs when I workout.  I notice the right was still sore and kind of hard.  I got in the shower as soon as we got home, thinking the hot water would loosen up the milk ducts before I was to pump again.  (Ava had had a bottle in kid care at the gym.)  So, I get to pumping and pumping.  I squeezed and massage the heck out of that thing.  Cringing in pain because there was this golf ball size lump.  Great!  Flipping FANTASTIC.  I have a clogged duct or many it seems like.  I started to cry.  There are SO MANY reasons why one get get clogged on you, so I couldn't really narrow it down.  I got the heating pad out and massaged the fire out of that sucker.  Time came for Ava to eat again.  Come on Ava, help mama out.  I let her feed off that one boob for as long as she could and that champ of mine, worked her magic.  My boob was clog free.
What I learned.....
-try heat
-try massaging the boob into submission
-let your child drain that puppy dry!

I will let you know how I trot tomorrow at the race.  I really don't have a goal really.  Just running to run.
Have a great Friday.  See you tomorrow!
