Kudos to Heather for pointing me toward this site that provides a bunch of info for women who are interested in/new to weight training.
Good info on weight, sets, reps, nutrition, and tips for training before and after pregnancy (and for those interested: working out actually tends to *decrease* the discomfort of monthly bleeding and cramping, which is yet another great reason for me to stay on track).
I particularly like the photo of her pushing her car.
