Question for all the MW mommies or pregnant MWers. Besides the obvious rollercoaster rides at DL and DCA, what rides would you avoid while pregnant? I know they post signs that say certain rides aren't recommended for pregnant women, but using your maternal instinct, what would you not be comfortable doing? Like, would you do POTC, being it has those 2 small drops? Just curious. Planning to go again to DLR this fall and hopefully will be preggo with little Jedi #3!

I had such a tough pregnancy that I would proably stick to to rides my little guy likes - Minderella  265.8 #867 5:56AM
I am not the pregnancy poster child but while I was pregnant with my daughter(now 16). The only 3 rides I didn't do were Matterhorn, BTRR & Space Mountain. - MissyluvsDisneyland  357.6 #396 5:59AM
Basically any ride my 1 year old can't ride, I don't go on, except soarin that's ok :) I'm 15 wks. Anything that's pretty bumpy or rough is harmful to baby. - RickeyCalifornia  157.0 #2193 6:03AM
On this app when u click to see wait times you can see the height requirements next to them, my rule of thumb is anything that a 33" tall person can't ride, preggys shouldn't ride lol if there's no height requirement next to it, it's ok :) - RickeyCalifornia  157.0 #2193 6:10AM
When I was pregnant I took my toddler on Francis' Ladybug Boogie. That thing was surprisingly bumpy and jerky. Scared me a lot.  - Marieeezy  588.9 #187 8:05AM
I'm not one to say don't go on anything. I was preg with my oldest and went on Indy at 6 months. I also went jet skiing with my youngest at 7 months preg. Use your best judgement if you think it might be iffy than don't go. - Arielkitten13  122.8 #2687 8:09AM
I would agree with @dlandlover and @Arielkitten13, use your best judgement. My wife rode pretty much everything except the rides that jar you around a lot. She did Space Mtn though. If you know the rides, you should know your limits. - DiscoSteve  252.3 #990 8:16AM
I went on POTC the day before I went into labor. I figured my kid couldn't fall out and once would be ok. I was also hoping to give birth at DL so she would have a lifetime pass.  The bigger rides def not. But all I wanted was to smell the pirate water, popcorn and the smell of Main St. - DznyHeart  82.0 #3257 8:19AM
And btw POTC is her fave ride and she's been riding it since 2 months. - DznyHeart  82.0 #3257 8:21AM
I did everything but the rollercoasters and ToT while preggo - Basically if my 2 year old could do it, so did I. But, that's me. Use your judgement. With it being #3 you know how your body handles pregnancies - best of luck! - SnowW13  222.6 #1325 8:23AM
