Haunted houses while pregnant?

Question

So I have had plans of going to a haunted house this Halloween season, but found out I am pregnant. I have heard pregnant people shouldn't go and always thought that way but I was looking into it and basically there really isn't any problem with it except for the risk of falling/being pushed and high blood pressure because of the jump scares. What is everyone opinions on it. Would you go? I would be currently 13-16 weeks in the month of October and want to know everyone's opinions on the subject.

Answer

I didn't go when I was pregnant the first time and I won't this time. I feel like if I'm scared and jumping  that's it causing unnecessary and added stress to my baby. I stopped watching scary movies while I was pregnant the first time! We went to watch one and I was nervous, scared and jumping out of my seat. Not worth it to me!

Answer

I'm going and I will be about 28 weeks! I don't see the harm :) I don't get scared easily so maybe if I did I wouldn't go. I'm just going to watch where I'm going

Answer

I went to a haunted house last week, I'm ten weeks pregnant. Of course, I've never really found haunted houses very scary, I just go because other people want to, but as long as it's not one of the ones where they're gonna grab you or something, I can't even imagine how it would be dangerous.

Answer

They alert the people in the haunted house you are going through most of the time so they don't mess with you. My first was born the day before Halloween which is also my fav holiday and I was going to haunted houses up until the weekend before I had her. (Born on the 30th instead of 31st lol)

Answer

I went, it was fine just be careful not to trip in the dark. Everyone we went with knew I was pregnant and made sure I was okay the whole time. If you are accident prone I would avoid it

Answer

I would talk to your doctor closer to Halloween. Perhaps if it was a haunted house you've been to before and know what to expect it might be okay otherwise I wouldn't suggest it. Lines are long and you might be careful but those around you may not. I went to one a few years ago (not pregnant then) and costumed actors would grab people in line and jerk them around. Plus I would need to go to the bathroom every 5 minutes or more and you wouldn't have them available.

Answer

It can cause you to go into labor!! Talk to your doctor

Answer
