“Retreats, Ribs & Real-Time Data” - At 26 weeks pregnant (28 on paper), HeHe steps into a week of movement, learning, and deep self-trust. She attends a pelvic-floor-focused retreat in Kingston, bonding with women of all ages through Pilates and shared birth wisdom—surviving a surprise vegetarian menu before celebrating with a hamburger at home. Back in her routine, she explains why she’s continuing modified hot yoga and sauna sessions with midwife approval, guided by Swedish research and careful temperature monitoring on her Apple Watch. She also shares her experience wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) instead of taking the traditional glucose drink test for gestational diabetes, adjusting her snacking to stay balanced. From rib flaring to expanding muscles, it’s a week of physical change, emotional growth, and empowered decision-making.
