The possibility of falling off the four wheeler is kind of high, so I'd say no.

Four Wheeler Safety

I miscarried at 6 weeks. The reason I miscarried, i was on a fourwheeler that turned over and I didnt know I was pregnant. So, no, not safe

My close friend and physician says that the ER gets many patients who have had accidents on four wheelers. It seems that people underestimate the potential for injury when riding and overestimate their ability to control the vehicle. Look at the terrain and the power behind the vehicle and your experience level. If any of those are questionable, then skip the four wheeling.

If it was me, I would not do it. Safety becomes a concern when you are pregnant. You are not going to "knock the baby loose" or anything, but if you are in an accident that can cause some problems.
Most women can keep doing their prepregnancy activities, but within reason. I have always continued with my activities, but I stop riding bike later in pregnancy due to potentially falling. So you can make your own decision. But, I encourage you to think about what your priorities are: To have fun or be safe for your unborn child.
Good luck to you with this pregnancy!

I would call my dr to check just to be on the safe side. I know you can't horse back ride because of the bouncing....I would think the same thing would go for 4 wheelers. But call your doc. Congratulations!

I don't think four wheelers are safe at all. My daughter lost her step brother in a four wheeler accident. I wouldn't get on one at all. If I were you I would wait until the baby was here so you were only putting yourself in danger.

It is probably not a good idea. You should check with your doctor or midwife to be sure. Generally speaking, now that you are pregnant, most fun stuff is out. This means no booze, caffine, diet soda, roller coasters, horseback riding, sushi, long hot baths, hot tubs, etc. Welcome to motherhood. Don't be upset though. It is all totally worth it. Once you hold that baby in your arms, you won't miss all that other stuff.

My guess would be NO!!!
But since I am no expert on the matter, I have to say consult with your doctor because one thing I do know is that the further along you get in your pregnancy, the less you can do so as not to cause injury to your baby.
Besides, do you really wanna take the chance?

no it is not safe i used to go 4-wheeling with my husband all the time before if found out that i was pregnant then when i found out that i was pregnant i went to the doctor and asked her if it was okay if i still went, we had a big trip planned, and she told me that it was not safe if i went so we ended up staying home she told me that it was to much of a dangerous thing and that it could cause me to loose the baby
