    Congrats on you upcoming bundle of joy!

    I did a yahoo search and found the following site. Since I've never been pregnant, and never plan to be- I don't know if they are comfortable or practical, but it's a place to start. Hopefully someone with some knowledge will be able to help you out more.

    When my friend was pregnant she wore her husbands bike jerseys when hers got too tight.

    Another preggo rider here! :D

    Yay! Congrats on the news!
    When is your due date? I ask b/c I am also 3 months along. 15 weeks, 4 days to be exact.
    I am still riding as well, and have seen maternity shorts on the TE site. You may also look at Title 9. I don't know if they have cycling clothes, but I do know they have good maternity/nursing sports bras.
    I've heard mostly about people getting larger men's shorts/clothes. Not just hubby's but buying L and XLs
    How long do you plan to ride? What kind of riding do you do? I'm struggling with how long I should continue riding. I know that is something I need to ask my doc, though.
    There's a ride coming up at the end of this month I want to do, but fear I may be too big. This is my second child, though, so I am a little poochier this time around.

    I forgot to answer about my riding, I ride 30 miles a day and have not had any problems with it. I feel like I could go all day but other priorities don't allow that! I feel better on my bike then off of it. It really helps with the morning sickness I have been having.

    If you feel good I don't think the size of your belly should be a problem with the upcoming ride. Just make sure you are feeling stable enough, don't want any risks of falls. That is one of my concerns, I ride on a nice easy route and keep my speed down to avoid greater risks.

    HOLY COW! This will be number six? You're amazing- not only for being an amazing mom to 5 kiddos, but for going through pregnancy six times. All my admiration to you.
    So, you're a mom of 5 AND you ride 30 miles a day? Yowzers. I shall call you "Superwoman."

    I am fortunate to have 5 kids which includes 2 teenage girls along with a very supportive DH. They are the reasons I can ride my bike often. It was my DH who brought up the idea of riding, little did he know he would create a cycling monster! I think he is suprised how much I have fallen for this cycling thing, I am just glad he lets me roll with it!

    Thanks for seeing me as a superwoman, but my family support is what allows me the time. I am trying to get the kids interested in riding too.I am hoping the whole family will be able to go on a cross country trip once they all are old enough to ride. It may be 15 years or so but I can't wait! That is a great thing about this activity, you can keep riding until your an old timer. Makes for a fun future!
