Climbing Past My Pregnancy Stigma

Excellent first post in a series by Beth Rodden who is expecting her first child soon:

When I first found out I was pregnant, I did a ton of research to see what other climbers experienced, and didn't find a lot out there. I want to help change this in the climbing community, to help make it an open discussion.
If you research running while pregnant, the resources are endless from novice runners to professionals; but climbing while pregnant is a topic I couldn’t find much information about. I also want to share some of my personal inner worry and questioning as I think it's something a lot of women go through, regardless of if they are climbers or not.
It feels hard to open up about such a personal topic, but I know it would have helped me immensely if I had found a blog like this.

Check out the rest of the series, including an interview with Lynn Hill, on Rodden's blog.
