Boating while pregnant while others are tubing?

Question

I am 8weeks pregnant and went on a boat today with out even second guessing it! I had a life jacket on but I was thinking about the bumps. It wasn't that bumpy of a ride but a was a little and we were pulling my nephews on the tube. I feel fine no cramping or anything. Am I totally over thinking this or should i be concerned?!?

Answer

Just be careful not to strain yourself while lifting...be aware of the weight you are lifting. But boating is fine :)

Answer

I did the exact same thing this weekend! No worries at all about boating, no problems. I just stayed out of the lake water.

Answer

I think you're overthinking it. You should be fine!

Answer

Boats are fine. It's things like roller coaster and amusement park ride that throw you around that aren't ok.

Answer

I wouldn't worry at all! Baby is safely housed in lots of cushioning fluid. You would want to be cautious about anything that could throw your body around though like really rough boating or jet skiing.
