“A victory for motherhood!”
“Standing here having done it again at 32, and holding my baby, is a dream come true,” Fraser-Pryce said, according to. “I had no sleep last night. Last time I was at a major championship was 2016 and I just could not sleep with nerves. But with mental toughness you will get what you want. I can’t believe it. I worked so hard to be back. The field was so strong I had to come good here and I’m so excited to come out with victory.
Like so many of us, her journey into motherhood wasn’t without obstacles. Especially because, as an athlete, pregnancy can negatively impact your career. She revealed to the AP that she “sat on her bed and cried” when she learned she was pregnant with her son. Many people thought it was time for her to retire, but she wasn’t ready. Like“Everyone’s entitled to their opinion,” she said. “I knew how I felt and I knew I wasn’t ready to go.
Her pregnancy wasn’t easy, and she had to stop training as a result. “For 10 weeks, I couldn’t lift weights on my back,” Fraser-Pryce continued. “And mentally, it’s even harder because you’re 30, you’re having a baby, the females are out there running fast. You wonder if you can come back. For me, I just worked really hard.” To further complicate things, Felix’s son was also born two months prematurely, spending around a month in the neonatal intensive-care unit.
