*This post is not medical advice, rather my own personal opinion of what is and is not safe to ride while pregnant.*
Often Disney trips are planned out far in advance and women may find themself pregnant during their trip. My mother went to Disney World when she was pregnant with me in 1987. Many people will say that pregnant women are safe on any ride that is for all ages and all heights, but to me it’s not that simple. I wanted to generate a list of rides that are safe at Disney World, along with other things to do in the parks.
