Disney World

Hi all!!!  I'm new to this board.  Just found out last week that I'm pregnant!  What a shock!!!!  I have a 12 year old daughter.  I'm 6 weeks and headed to Disney World next week for Spring Break.  What do you think about the rides?  Will it be safe?  I don't have any history of miscarriages.  Thanks for your opinions!!!

    Welcome and congrats!  It should be safe at this early stage, but as PP said you need to listen to your body.  If you are starting to feel morning sickness by then, you may not feel much like going on rides.  If you are unsure about anythin

    Congrats!  I'm here in Orlando and go to the mouse all the time.  Each ride will list dangers out front on a sign, if there are any.  I would avoid any that specifically say no to pregnant women.  Good luck and have fun!!

    I found this smikkles, hope it helps!

    Avoid attractions with health restrictions. These restrictions are always posted at the attraction itself, or you can check the PassPorter Walt Disney World guidebook to find out before you go. In general,

    We just went with our 2 year old last fall, when I was about 19-20 weeks, and there are only a true handful of rides you ought to avoid.  At Magic Kindom, I'd skip Splash Mountain, Big Thunder, and Space Mountain; at Epcot I'd skip Mission Space a

    I found out I was pregnant about 2 days before going to Disney World/Universal Studios.

    I went to Disneyworld last fall when I was 7 weeks pregnant. I rode all of the kiddie rides with DD, but sat out from the roller coasters. If you look up any of the rides on the WDW webpage, it will say so if they're not recommended for pregnant women. It

    Hi there-I am a Disney travel agent and ex cast member.  There are not that many rides to avoid to be honest.  Drink plenty of water as the walking is a LOT- especially in Epcot and Animal Kingdom. 

     You'll want to avoid:
