Does anyone know a woman who was able to swim at their top form after she had a child? In running, Marion Jones was able to come back in international form after giving birth. I was just wondering if swimmers are able to do this yet. This woman doesn't have to be an Internationally ranked swimmer as well.
I was thinking about this after a girl I knew was going to go under 5 minutes in the 500 free but she got pregnant in high school and she never got back to her top form. Where else could I ask this question than the USMS discussion board.

Every baby is an Olympic swimmer in utero! My kid would do flip turns inside as I was trying to rest or sleep. The constant rocking motion of Mom's movements is thought to be very relaxing...
Maybe that is why we enjoy swimming so much, it was a great experience for us in the womb!
