makes sense, youre working your body harder so it needs more rest. thats how my body responded too. since i started working out id get sleepier at night and sleep harder THRU the night. when i had insomnia mostly it was from not being as physically active during the day (not working, sitting around, resting, etc). as soon as i demanded my body to work harder, i slept like a baby (who sleeps thru the night ! haha)
Yes I agree, your body might need more sleep because it's building muscle. Exercise is a magic cure for insomnia!!
Also, I do think that eating a boy-friendly diet makes you sleepy because you're always digesting something.
Is it OK to do weights during 2ww????
i dont see why not. ppl can exercises during pregnancy (or potential pregnancy) as they were BEFORE pregnancy as long as you arent straining yoruself in the later months right? but i guess the point of weights was to increase T and build muscle before the attempt. so if youre doing it to make sure its a boy, its prob too late to do it during 2ww, but would still be ok for trying to remain healthy reasons...
ITA with this. I've actually kept up with my weight training even though I am pg now; as the belly grows some of the exercises will have to change though.Quote:

Q - yesterday I held 1kg weight in each hand while walking on a treadmill for 30 mins. Would this be a form of weights?
A little bit, but it's better still if you can do some arm movements while walking, even if it's just simple like bicep curls. The more muscle groups you move simultaneously, the more T you'll make.Quote:

That would def. help!!
