Amusement Park Rides & Pregnancy: Safety Guidelines for Expectant Mothers
QuestionI'm 22 and 12 weeks pregnant;I wanted to know if it was ok to get on roller coasters or any other rides?
AnswerGenerally, most amusement park rides jostle and bounce the body around quite a bit, and are not advisable for pregnant women. Many of these types of rides will warn pregnant women not to get on. Other rides with rigid harnesses can compress the belly too much. Gentle rides, such as a ferris wheel, will not have a warning for pregnant women and are OK to enjoy.
