should I play?

[sirenz]

so i only just found out this morning that i pg again but i just realised that i am due to start playing tennis tonight do you think its safe to play tennis while pg?? I would only be about 3 1/2 weeks pg sooo just wondering, would you play?

[BrightSparkles]

Firstly CONGRATULATIONS!!

I would think for now it would be ok. Most people don't really know they are pg yet and keep doing that kinda stuff.

I think it would be fine if you played.. as long as you dont wear yourself out too much. )
And Congratulations!

Im still playing netball, indoor games once a week for half an hour. My chiro said to play as long as i feel comfortable to keep as much movement in my joints as possible. If its something you do regularly i would continue? Unless you have a history of bad pregnancies?

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Unless the doctor says otherwise due to history of early loss or something, play!!

Exercise is super good for you during pregnancy, as with when you aren't lol

Cogreatulations!!

I played tennis till I was nearly 6mths pg and was unable to move quick enough to get the ball. Everyone has their own comfort level when it comes to playing sport in pg - I have knee-boarded till 8mths and played netball till 13wks as well (only stopped because the comp finished).

Don't forget that till 12wks the baby is nicely hidden in behind the pubic bone so if you get hit with a ball it wont hurt anything.

Congratulations!!!

I have a friend who played netball till she was 7.5 months pg !

Then she played another game when her baby was 4 days old !

I could barely walk by either of those stages....

Anyway - the moral of that story is - yes, play, it shouldnt be a problem - just take it a bit easier !

Good luck and congrats !

thanks ladies for all the encouragement I have decided its best not to play, but i'm still going to ride my bike and go swimming, they are a bit gentler than tennis

thanks again
