No Spiking!

By far my favorite activity is Volleyball. I've been playing in a weekly Rec league with the same friends since the first year that we moved here. So naturally I was keen to continue playing with this fall's volleyball season. I've been feeling great and I figure it's pretty low risk as it is a Rec league! I don't plan to dive for the ball or anything, to which my teammates responded, "Well it's not like you did much of that before anyways"!! Hahaha

Doug is not so happy about my decision to play;) Thinks I should be taking it easy. He has been so wonderful throughout so far and always looking out for me. After my first game this past Thursday I came home and was telling Doug about this awesome spike I had, and how it pulled on my stomach skin. His reaction was priceless. "Spiking! No spiking! You are not to be spiking the ball."

I also mentioned I get the same stretching feeling when I sneeze and I do a lot more of that than spiking :)

For now I'm going to give it a go. Told my team that I'd have to see how it goes, and I might have to quit as soon as it gets uncomfortable or if I start to question whether it is the best thing for the baby.

The team is going to start a pool to guess on which date my stomach will reach the same size as the volleyball! Anyone want to enter??!
