Pregnant surfer rides a wave into motherhood

What's wrong with "hanging loose" while you're pregnant?

In this video, Kolby Fahlsing is 40 weeks pregnant. Like any woman nearing the end of a pregnancy, she felt uncomfortable. Of course, headaches, nausea, heartburn, and leg pain didn't help.

Kolby decided she needed to relax in an extreme fashion — surfing. Not only did it work with relaxation, but it probably helped with inducing labor. Kolby assures us she was very safe the entire time and only surfed behind a wake boat with spotters. Now, she is the proud mother of a beautiful baby boy.
