As a roller coaster fan, I'm sure you've seen the signs all over the entrances about how pregnant women are advised NOT to ride. The baby is well protected from mostly anything, but the significant g-forces are going to wreak havoc on your body and your uterus. The bag of waters may not be completely filling up your uterus quite yet, and the g-forces may cause your placenta to detach. This is a serious problem and could cause infection or premature labor. The g-forces will also cause baby/water/etc. to puch down on your cervix--again, NOT a good thing and can cause premature labor. For a measly $50, don't risk your or your baby's health. Either wait it out while the boyfriend rides, stay on the VERY low key rides, or choose a different activity. I don't know where you are from, but I am sure you can find a daytrip that doesn't break the bank. My husband and I took a trip into Boston for the day last week. We window shopped and walked around, and had a very nice dinner/treats all for less than $100.

I think you are fine to go on any ride except a high G force ride. The Kumba would be an example. I would also avoid the flume due to the sudden stop. I haven't been to the park for more than 10 years, but they have other roller coasters that are not high G coasters. Those would be perfectly fine.
The problem at under 3 months is less the baby than you. Once you are pregnant, your tissues fill with additional fluids. I believe it is because of this that you are more likely to get neck or back aches and possibly injury.
Have a fun time at the park, but pay attention to the signs. If they have a pregnancy warning, I'd follow that for your own safety.

I went on one and then found out later that I was pregnant. It scared me a bit, but the baby was so small that nothing would have happened (and I'm due in 5 weeks and have been told the baby is perfect). I would double check with some medical people first though, and personally, if I had known, I wouldn't have done it. Is it really important to you to go on the roller coaster? If not, then I just wouldn't risk it. If something did ever happen, you would always be wondering if it was the ride and could you have prevented it by not going on it.

No, don't trust that. It would be best for you and your baby to stay away from any rollercoasters. You can ride some things, but only the rides that don't have a height limit. Ride with caution. Most theme parks have info about what is safe and what is not. Have fun. Busch Gardens have lots of shows and sightseeing.

The only thing I've heard is NO roller coasters no matter how far along during pregnancy.
Get on their website and look at their policy on pregnancy.

Bad idea. They even put in big bold letters on signs while you're waiting in the line for the roller coaster: "do not ride if you're pregnant."

I don't think you are supposed to go on a roller coaster at any stage of pregnancy....I would ask your doc before you do.

I wouldn't do it. A few hours of fun is not worth the chance of losing your baby the chances may be small but why risk it right.
