Sports during pregnancy
Hi, I'm 8 weeks (ftm) and I'm a little unsure about what the rule is about playing sports. I meet with a doctor next week, but I wanted to see if anyone here could offer some advice. I'm 120 pounds and in relatively good shape. I play soccer and ultimate frisbee three times a week. Is it safe for me to play? If so, when should I stop? I've heard things about trying to keep your core temperature and pulse from spiking. I'm a little nervous because I don't want to do anything that would possibly hurt the baby.
I would be careful of soccer because it is a bit more of a contact sport
My doctor told me I could keep doing what ever I was doing before becoming pregnant... even kick boxing :)
