Definitely lift those weights and strenghthen those legs and lower back if you are bringing a 12-month or older child home. I'm starting to toughen up, but my body was aching when we went down to bring our daughter home. Get physically fit BEFORE you may have to constantly hold a toddler for four days in a row and walk them and rock back and forth using those hip muscles.

I feel great now, but my body was not in shape. Another blessing this little bundle of joy has given me ... physical endurance!
