Kerri Walsh Is Pregnant Again!

Seven months after giving birth to her first child, two-time Olympic gold medalist Kerri Walsh is pregnant again. She says she will skip the 2010 season and longtime partner Misty May-Treanor will play with a new teammate for the first time since 2001.

Kerri Walsh amazed mothers everywhere in August when she stepped back into a bikini and competed on the AVP Tour just more than two months after giving birth to her first child. She'll impress many more if she can do it again.

She'll have a chance again this summer because she's almost four months pregnant with her second child, Walsh told UniversalSports.com on Friday.

"I'm pregnant again so I'm taking the year off and Misty is going to be playing with a different partner," the 31-year-old said, adding, "My due date is May 30, so end of May I'll be taking care of my family and starting to creep back into shape and I'll be ready for the 2011 season. My hope and my plan is for Misty and I to get back together and be better than ever."

"The goal is to play together and win in 2012, to win an Olympic gold medal," Walsh said.

Though Walsh, who is married to fellow AVP star Casey Jennings, says she's aiming to be back for the 2011 season, few would be surprised to see her sooner. She gave birth to a son, Joseph Michael, on May 22 and was back on the court in early August. Walsh says she's itching to play again right now.

"Part of the challenge of coming back this year was to make sure that I could do it and I did physically. And once I can wrap my head around it mentally then I know I'll be a better player than ever before," Walsh said.
