Five weeks is a drop int ocean. Its been four months already!

And it is that hard when its the only thing you have a license for, and you've never gone more than three weeks :-(

:(

My wife crashed her bike at the end of Aug (and then found out she was pregnant 2 days later :pale: ),
http://www.fastdruid.co.uk/albums/NC...C35Damage1.jpg
So she's at least not had a bike to ride (although I've got pretty much all the bits to sort it now) and its been a crap winter so she's not really wanted to. Now its got to the point where even if she wanted to she won't fit!

I do know of a woman who rode at 8 months (to get an MOT as she said she figured it would be easier than after the birth), actually here we go:

Feeling like a squid I tootled up to the petrol station, belly touches
the tank which feels very weird. Fill up and decide to head to
Sherburn for a cuppa by the nadgery back roads to free things up.
A couple of miles down the road I decided this was a really bad plan,
bouncing babies once they're born may be great but in utero it is not
and I didn't dare using the front brakes much at all for fear of
smashing it into the tank. The thought of an emergency stop didn't
bear thinking about and holding on with my knees / locking my arms was
not possible for any protracted period.

Turned around and went home, did about 10 miles in all. Rode like a
complete wuss the entire way and am now feeling rather silly for even
having tried.

Indeed FD, I don't feel comfortable going off with a baby in here. We may only be in the early stages, but the principal is all the same no matter what stage.

I just can't turn the mojo off. I cried and had a bit of a tantrum this morning at Pete. :-(

If only my bikes were a bit broken like your wifes, maybe it would turn off a bit.

Hey Dizzy,

I know that it is hard when you want to ride, but can't. I am still to return to my mountain bike properly after some major surgery in 2006.

You will get through. Venting frustration on loved ones may get it out of your system, but there may be better ways.

Are there other things you can do, ride or drive? Learning to drive is not fun, but may be of use to you if you are able. Otherwise, what about a cheap Quad from E-Bay? If it is just around town, maybe that will give you the mobility you desire with out the discomfort and difficulty of a bike?

In truth though, you most likely just need to vent some more and then remember that your baby will be the most beautiful and adorable baby ever and all of the waiting and being careful was worth it. Good luck and drop me a line if you want to chat, rant or make mean comments about silly car drivers.
Hugs
Jayne
