I'm Currently Feeling:  | Bowling
Hi guys, might sound like a silly question, but are we allowed to go bowling? My work is arranging a bowling night and I'd love to be able to go, but I dont want to risk harming the LO! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Im not 100% but i wouldent think it was good for you, with them weighty bowling balls and all the bending involved.
But like i said, im not 100%, maybe some of the other ladies will be able to help more. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I had wondered about this too but if it was me I think I would give it a miss, the heavy balls and stuff, unless you use the really light one!! I have had bleeding and stuff so that would prob be why I wouldnt bother |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | you could use a light ball and even use the aids they have to bowl so you're not bending too much. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I've read about this on here before and apparently you are actually allowed. I think u have to take more care, pick up a lighter ball than normal and becareful not to bend down too much. If u go hope u have fun! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | You can go bowling as long as you use the light weight balls and don't throw yourself down the alley! That wood is very slippery! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm so gald you asked this question as OH wanted us to go bowling yesterday but I said no coz I didn't think I'd be allowed with baby beanie.
OH mentioned about using the aid things and I dont see a problem if you do use them, but its up to you and how you feel. |
