This may be better under general discussion but here goes.
Just found out I am pregnant for the first time. Overjoyed but also aware that my weekend, holidays, and social life revolve around caving, usually with husband. Obviously we are both going to be parents but its going to affect me more by way of no caving when pregnant/post birth (have heard up to a year?) , or the easiest sport to combine with a young family. Also, most of our friends are cavers/canoeists who dont have kids, or even seem to be considering it so i could be the solitary mum in the crowd.
Would love to hear from any of you mums out there as to how it affected your life/caving and whether its a case of hanging up my SRT kit for good.
thanks.
ps - usually post under another name but dont want to announce this to the wider world for a few months.
