Cross nation skiing is first-class, but snowboarding is iffy in view that you're then in the 2nd trimester. Furthermore, you put the location the place you might be snowboarding at higher threat for liability. Nonetheless, in case you are on a confidential run and there are no other snowboarders, it is regularly excellent. Nevertheless, let me let you know, in case you fell after which later miscarried or had a stillbirth, you are going to spend the rest of your life blaming your self although the miscarriage or stillbirth had nothing to do along with your snowboarding. When you consider that you'll the general practitioner on the twenty ninth, simply add it to your record of inquiries to ask.

Unfortunately, No :-( Here is an article though from www.babycenter.com to give you a litte information as to why. Congratulations on your pregnancy too!
The ACOG recommends that pregnant women avoid contact sports as well as those that put you at high risk of falling. That means no snowboarding or skiing, ice skating, horseback riding, waterskiing, or surfing while you're on vacation. Scuba and other "pressurized" sports are also out since dangerous air bubbles can form in your bloodstream as you surface. Waterslides and many amusement park rides are risky as well — forceful landings and sudden starts and stops can harm your unborn baby.

Honestly the first 13 weeks of pregnancy you are most likely to miscarry.. so unless you want a healthy baby I wouldn't chance snowboarding. If you fall by any chance you can lose your child. I wouldn't risk it... and after your thirteen weeks i still wouldn't snowboard... falling is dangerous while pregnant.. whether you are 1 week up till that 40th week when your child should come out. So it is safer to just stop snow boarding

NO NO NO you can not go snowboarding while pregnant!!! You could fall or run into something, it doesn't matter how experienced or good you are it is not safe. You would also at least be about 4 weeks pregnant and not 2 since you would go by the first day of your last period, you could even be further along than 4 weeks it depends on when your last period was.

NO! My mom went snowboarding when she had her last baby, and she fell over and got really hurt! Don't let being pregnant cramp your style though. If you can't hit the slopes, try watching snowboarding on the TV.

It isn't a very good idea, but I wouldn't personally worry about it until you are 4-5 months and the snow will be long gone by then.
Only you can know for sure if you are over doing it.

The truth is that any mild contact or shock to your body can kill your child. Pregnant woment should not snowboard.

Yes, you should stop... it's probably not the best activity even though they say you would be surprised what babies can survive in the womb.
