Pregnancy Info HOME

My doctor gave me her blessing as well. "If that is your sport, then do it! Until you feel uncomfortable. Be careful as you get bigger because your balance may be off" I actually did a mountain bike race at 16 weeks! People on the trail couldn't get over that I was pregnant and doing the race and how cool that was. I am also an avid snowboarder but decided to not snowboard while pregnant. I have gotten hurt due to other peoples negligence while snowboarding and decided to not take a chance. There are alot of idiots out there and I have had several snow injuries because of it. If you do fall, my doctor says don't try and protect your belly, you will get more hurt. People, she said, "would be better off if they bounced off their belly. The baby is well protected." I am just afraid with skiing/snowboarding of someone slamming into me.
