The football mum

After falling pregnant in 2016 I continued to train and play with Yeovil until 12 weeks. Then after that I would train non contact for as long as I could as well as keeping active all the way through pregnancy by walking and working on technique. This all enabled me to be able to be back on the pitch six weeks after giving birth. Though falling pregnant was a surprise at the time I did always want a family but didn’t want to give up playing or retire early, so I feel I’m very lucky to be able to have both in my life and have seen from others and myself that it’s possible to do.
