    Diving Post-pregnancy and while Breastfeeding

    Does anyone have any information on how long after giving birth to wait before diving again? Also, does breastfeeding affect diving? Thanks! Miranda

    Which springs?

    I would try to get a current review on King before heading there. I was there in early November and the water was completely murky and absolutely no flow from the spring was visible. The vis was zero. I saw others reporting similar conditions for quite some time so I'd check to see how it is...

    Is Ginnie Springs good for OW?

    Seriously? Since when? My husband and I dove there a lot before our cave certifications and the entrance signs and Janet (ranger) never required an instructor. Miranda

    Is it Common to have Jaw Trouble After Two Dives?

    I'm pretty sure it's what others have suggested. You are biting down on the mouthpiece and causing the fatigue. It happened to me a few times when I first started diving. Try to relax your jaw. Practice removing your reg. under water so you will be confident that should it come loose you'll be...

    Jet Fins - how far should one's heel protrude past the foot pocket?

    The heel of my foot sticks out quite a bit. Much further than I'd actually like but that's the fin. I have small feet (7 womens) and am using the Large Jets. I've always felt like the foot pocket is not tall enough (its wide enough) to stick your foot in far enough. I originally bought the XL...

    Thank You to Florida Fish and Wildlife Officer in the Upper Keys today

    I'm pretty sure FWC has a hotline where you could give the officer kudos or link to this thread. Since the big budget cuts in FL public kudos goes a long way to help state employees!! Miranda

    Input blown off by male classmates

    I think too that sometimes in classes, everyone present is an "equal" in their skill levels and the best candidate to lead may not be the one the instructor appointed. I'm not saying you weren't the best candidate by any means but the two other divers could have "felt" they were better equipped...
