That is a good question. I don't really know, but I think it would have to do with how far along you are. If you are not really showing, then I would say ok as long as your not doing any hard riding. If you are farther along and showing, I would say no, because even your smaller bump can throw off your balance a bit.
I guess over all it is something I wouldn't do, but if you are not that far along I don't see the big deal.
Take care and congrats on baby.

If you rode a bike before you were pregnant, I would say go ahead and ride. Just be careful. If you didnt ride a bike before you were pregnant. I would any way just dont ride long and be careful. But ask a doctor either way.

Not really, and especially not if you are showing. Pregnant women often feel faint or lightheaded and that could easily cause you to fall. Plus, the bigger you get the less you can rely on your sense of balance. Better safe than sorry.

As long as you are healthy and all is well with the pregnancy, yes. Ask your doctor to make sure, but mine has always told me that walking, cycling and swimming are excellent forms of exercise whilst pregnant.

well, there is always the risk of falling off. however, ive played softball since i was little and i asked my doctor if it was ok to keep playing for a while. she said if its something youve been doing your whole life, theres no need to stop until ur uncomfortable.

If you are early in your pregnancy yes. Later in pregnancy your center of gravity gets thrown off so I would say not to chance it.

I would think it's okay as long as you don't have a huge belly messing up your balance. If you're really far along I wouldn't risk it...

I wouldn't let my baby's mom ride a bike when she is pregnaut. Anything can happen and its better off not risking it
