I am almost 6 months pregnant and this last weekend I went jet ski riding. Do you think I hurt my baby at all. I didn't get crazy on it or do anything stupid, I never fell off. The two days I was out at the lake I probab;y rode it a total of 5 to 10 minutes.But jet skies are kind of bouncy did I hurt my baby?

its probably NOT a good idea to be doin that, specially this far into your pregnancy..

I would say it is not a good idea all that bouncing.

I owned jet skis for years. I would say no, unless you're on a smooth lake and not hitting the waves etc. I've gotten my ass slammed pretty hard on minor waves so I'd be careful. What size jet ski do you have? Some of the bigger 3 seaters take the shock much better than my two seaters did. Use caution and stay on smooth water and you'd probably be fine. Stay out of choppy water.

what about atv riding, I have been riding for over 10 years so I'm not afraid that causing injurt due to falling off, but could I cause any other harm. I think its the falling off that the dr's are afraid of but im not sure. Any suggestions?
