Fitness vs. Child bearing

Tuesday, I broke a new record for me and ran 3 miles on the Treadmill in 35.11 mins.
The last time I ran was 1 week ago at 36 mins. It was challenging. Last night, I had a headache so bad, I wanted to throw up.

I can't help but think that the next time I'm pregnant, that I won't want to run, in fear of loosing the baby. So part of me doesn't want to get pregnant next month, because I don't want to stop getting better at running, yet.

But of course I also feel that my clock is ticking and time is running out. Having a miscarriage makes me feel like I'm getting older and more of a statistical risk of problems.

So we'll see. I might wait a couple of months. Or when I reach a plateau with the running.
