Annoyed! Need opinions..

So I'm 37w 1d. Today my hubby and I rode our bikes almost a mile away from home and back. I enjoyed it and I was fine the whole time. I was so excited and proud of myself to be able to ride that far while being pregnant. I was so excited I just had to tell my mom about it. Her response was " you're not suppose to ride a bike" omg! I made sure it was fine before I did it. She still disagreed with me. I'm so annoyed because she thinks she knows everything. I love her, but omg! Just want to know what you ladies think :) . Is she right!? Im i being over dramatic about this !?  Thanks

You have to remember they had a whole different experience when they were pregnant.  They were told not to exercise at all basically and nm own we know exercise is essential! It's a generational thing. Glad you enjoyed your ride! I cycle almost every day still and it's so helpful.

My moms the same way. I went swimming the other day and she flipped out and said I probably got an infection lol. Of course I asked my Dr before hand. I love her but she just worries about everything.
