Not to quit in my first trimester

[Bexterfish]

Please don't slam me. I'm 7 weeks pregnant. I've known for a couple of weeks. Once a week I do trampolining, not on a kids one in the garden I mean proper gymnastic style with a coach. Aibu to keep it up until I get a bump which will alter my balance, so probably about Christmas when I'm 12ish weeks. It's the only exercise I do, I'm not doing any stomach landings and I'm competition level so I know what I'm doing and therefore unlikely to have serious fall (there's always a risk). My coach doent know because He's got a big mouth and would tell everyone but I'm taking it easy but I'm just not ready to give up yet plus quiting will 'out' me. I did my last competition a couple of weeks ago and won't be entering anymore. Guidelines say you shouldn't do things that risk a fall but I think I'm more likely to fall over my shoe laces. Is there anything dangerous about jumping? I feel totally fine when I do it, in fact I feel more well then than the rest of the day. Aibu?

And it's hardly surprising that the "head coach" - one of the people who benefit from your weekly attendance there - says it's fine for you to continue.

Listen to the advice that isn't motivated by your membership fee.

Just noticed that you also said:

an hour I most likely won't have when I've got 2 kids

So you're going to be giving it up anyway? May as well do it now then.

I hope ill go back but not with a newborn I won't be able to

After a couple months there's no reason u can't go back?

I think YABU - you know that it's a risk to your child when pregnant if you fell. It's only for a few months - why not just give up for a little while and take it up again when you've had the baby? To me it seems selfish.

Well as a GP if anyone came in to ask this I would just say don't do it. I guess I missed the "trampolining whilst pregnant " lecture at medical school.

Toasted is be interested to know if you didn't get taught about it what your basis for saying no would be then. Genuinely interested if you're say no, why. To be in the safe side or because you think it's actually a risk

Bigonesmallone and I will once I can leave the baby long enough and also my pelvic floor can cope etc

I don't think I can read anymore...I'm finding this upsetting. It is an hour a week of your precious bloody hobby OP. Catch a grip and grow up. I have given up 3 hobbies since falling pregnant and I wouldn't have it any other way. I guess pregnancy doesn't make selfish people any less selfish.

I am convinced that OP is a GF

Bexter because it involves a sudden change of direction. My concern would be that detachment of the pregnancy from the uterine wall could occur.

If I gave the ok and then you lost the pregnancy, I could be held liable and lose my indemnity/ licence / career.

I gave up tennis when pregnant as although unlikely to cause miscarriage, I'd never forgive myself if anything had happened.

Given Toasted's medical reasoning, will you reconsider now OP?

@Legaladviceplease You speak for me, too. I am going to have to hide this thread, I think.

I don't know what a gf is? I'm guessing some kind of troll. I'm really not.

Thank you toasted that's useful to know. I will reconsider on that basis. I thought as there's no placenta yet it wouldn't be an issue. I think I'll have one last session and stop

Why would you have an extra session but not stop? It's either a risk or it's not.

YABU. I understand it’s hard to give up a passion, even temporarily but surely, it’s better than risking losing your pregnancy or injuring yourself. Take care.

Idon't know what a gf is

Ginourmous fuckwit in this case

One last session? Are you addicted?

Yep pretty much. It's a big deal in my life.

Anchorman fan are we ?

Kind of a big deal...

It’s boring, but it’s part of my life...

Isn’t his dog called Baxter too? Are you a pregnant, trampoline-obsessed, Ron Burgundy op ?

I have no idea what you're on about. I've never seen ancorman sorry

Well, your baby should be a bigger deal.

My baby is a big deal. Like I said before I guess as I don't feel pregnant is hard to bond with a ball of cells at this point. It doesn't feel real so getting my head round the idea is pretty hard. It's like an abetery concept at the moment rather than a baby.

It doesn't sound like you're that bothered about it.
