I haven’t been able to write these past few days as I’m still recuperating, most emotionally, from a big scare. I spent 5 days in the hospital, 3 of them in ICU, getting treated for a kidney infection (pyelonephritis). Things got very complicated, I got to get a stent procedure, and many blood tests and X-rays later we discovered that it had not spread anywhere. Our baby boy is healthy and safe, thank God, and I just pray that there are no more bad surprises. 

My workout routine will be on hold for a bit. I may workout occasionally until I feel a bit more confident and less uncomfortable. 

I hope all mamas are doing well and staying healthy. I’m now learning how sensitive  pregnant women are to UTIs, which sound like not such a big deal, but like in my case can get so complicated. After what I went through, I will need some time to get “emotionally fit” again- but I’ll get there, because thinking of this little guy makes me want to keep being strong in every way!
