Hi!
A special welcome this week to
Ransom12 from Minnesota.
It seems like our list of active people is getting smaller. Just remember that what matters is that you keep moving, not how far or fast you go. I know it can be hard sometimes to see how much farther you have to go. But keep at it! Try to focus, instead, on how far you've come. And celebrate each day that you get out there and do something healthy.
I also have a question for people in the north -- especially those who already have children -- what do you do about strolling with your children in the winter? I have a coat/hat/mittens for our son (who is 9 months old); plus we have a snowsuit; plus we have a down "sleeping bag" cover that goes with his stroller; plus I've ordered a plastic wind cover for the stroller. But that said....and setting aside any possibility that he'll swelter
....is there a certain temperature under which you would
never take your child out for more than getting in/out of the car/buildings? Is there a certain time for which you wouldn't take them out in the cold? My concern is that his face will still be exposed. I plan on asking our pediatrician as well, but thought I would check with you all, too. Thanks!
Here's the first half of the list...
