Agility when pregnant (me not the dog!)

[Snowman81]

Hi,

Just wondered what people who do agility have done when pregnant. I am due in the Autumn and up to now managed training no problems, but I am definately getting bigger and slower. I wondered whether people have stayed training and doing competitions to a certain point, or at what point did you stop?

I have restarted my agility training BECAUSE I am pregnant lol. Can't ride and bored witless so started training again and first show in a month
I'm 21 weeks so not too big yet but I won't be able to go on until the end because I get SPD.

I've been going training with a very active toddler and 2 dogs so its hard work but good fun

I competed virtually all the way through my first pregnancy. Competed at Crufts while suffering from morning sickness which wasn't much fun with the queues for the loo. I ran my bitch 3 weeks before I had my daughter and our team won and qualified for Crufts for the following year, got my picture in the dog papers which my mum wasn't too impressed about as I told her I was only going to watch!
