I'm currently 12 weeks pg with 2nd baby. I have a short cycle commute to work (less than 2 miles), it's in london but my route is relatively quiet and I could make some adjustments to make it quieter still BUT DH is not keen and even more so since I had an accident on Monday. This was relatively serious, though non car was involved I ended up in an ambulance and spent night in hospital as I knocked myself out! Memory of crash is hazy but I think I slipped on wet patch when avoiding a pedestrian. This has shaken me up a bit and I prob won't cycle next week but I would like to continue once I get a new helmet and am feeling back to normal. I think this is because I know the accident is unlikely to happen again and I think the overall risk of cycling is unchanged. Overall I enjoy it and think the benefits outweigh the risks. Any tips to convince the worrying OH?
