Rollercoasters in pregnancy (pls see 1st paragraph before responding)
Let me preface this with 1)yes I know it’s not recommended and 2) I feel terribly guilty about it already so 3) please save the hate and judgmental posts.
I’m just looking for stories from other moms that may have made the same mistake. And their stories and advice.
I am 20 weeks and today I rode a child’s rollercoaster and a kids amusement park. I had thought it was more adult/Disney type rollercoasters that I had to stay away from….I definitely felt a little jostled and sore afterwards but 7 hours later I’ve had no pain and/or bleeding or other clear symptoms of placental abruption. Let me say I also had placental abruption in my IVF pregnancy last year due to an SCH that got out of control over the span of 9 weeks. I know how painful those can be. This pregnancy is a natural one and has been uncomplicated.

Why are you posting the same thing again. I'm sure you are fine but go get checked if you're that scared. Worrying like this is probably more damaging than the Rollercoaster especially to you let alone the baby. You're totally fine
In my first trimester I rode about 25 rollercoasters (I didn’t know I was pregnant and I was about 4/5 weeks) it was ones that spun me upside down, etc. it had no impact on my pregnancy. I told my doctor everything I did not knowing I was pregnant. They reassured me babies are resilient and I had a healthy baby 4 months ago. If you’re concerned go talk to your doctor. The hardest thing for me is not to be an overthinker mom and worry about everything.
