4 day bike trip while 3 months pregnant
My DH and I are thinking about TTC starting in June. Over Labor Day weekend we do a 4 day bike trip that avarages 75 miles a day. We generally start training in late April so my body will be used to the miles but do you think it would still be safe going 4 days in a row if I was pregnant, up to 12 weeks, at that point? I didn't show with DS until 20 weeks, so I don't think I'll have to worry about to much of a belly, I'm more thinking about over heating/exhaustion. Thoughts? (I would make sure I had a doc's approval also)

Re: 4 day bike trip while 3 months pregnant
YES YES YES!! I did a three week bike trip this summer at 19-21 weeks. We rode slowly, only about 30 miles a day, and took a few days off here and there. It was also a very flat ride. But it was three weeks and about 600 miles. I would only worry that you will be tired if in your 1st trimester. I was pretty tired. and it was my second. If you take care of yourself (pause when you need to, lots of water) you will be fine.
