Hubby and I have a date night this Friday, and were thinking of going to see the new marvel film in 4dx.
I’m 17weeks pregnant.
But now we’ve just noticed that the cinema doesn’t recommend that pregnant women go.
I don’t see what the problem or worry is. And would still like to go.
Does anyone know why or does anyone have any information/ experience of going to a 4dx film during pregnancy?

I think it’s more so if you’re like 30+ weeks, as it’s more of a sensory experience? I’ve never been to a 4DX but from what I’ve read I’d assume if pregnant it would raise your heart rate? - just assuming here x

Idk that’s weird that they would say that. I for sure would still go

I wouldn’t recommend it, I went when I was pregnant and the cinema chairs, vibrates and shakes and move about like a funfair ride. Myself and another lady had to keep getting up when those parts came on. So we ended sitting on the stairs throughout the rest of the movie lol.

It's the equivalent of Rollercoaster movement

exactly!! I was going to say that but thought I’d be exaggerating! Honestly the only way to describe it! I wouldn’t want to go through that again! It was bad!! But I didn’t know at the time.

4DX moves and vibrates the whole chair I would not recommend while pregnant. When I was pregnant I preferred Gold class movies because they have huge separate recliner chairs that fold all the way back. Plus I can ding the attendants anytime I want for food and drinks.

The first and only time I went to a 4dx movie I thought it felt like a rollercoaster to. It shakes and jolts you around.
Thanks everyone. We’ve decided against it.
