Softball

Hi ladies. I wanted to know if anyone played softball while pregnant, and if so how far along were you until you stopped?

I'll give the same advice someone else gave to me...you will know when it's time to stop, just make sure you listen to your body signs and that you protect yourself and baby (like don't expose your tummy to the ball so much) I don't do softball but I dance salsa, and im 39 weeks now I've danced through pretty much the whole time.  Even though my midwife wanted me to stop. But I was health and baby was health so I knew I could do it. I took it easy at times...Specially on this last few weeks. Softball is a bit more intense tho and there are more outside interferences that could harm you and baby, so just be careful but do what makes you feel good and happy.

I'm 19 weeks. Do you think fully swinging off the tee would hurt the baby?
