One of the main things I want to do while on my honeymoon is go parasailing....But now that I'm pregnant I don't know if its safe or not...I don't have my dr.'s app till after we come back from the honeymoon so can't ask him. what do you think?

by the way I just text this pic to my FH...Thought it was the cutest thing...so I wanted to share it...

Do you know if you would land on the boat or sand? I went a few years ago and had a rough landing short of the beach in the sand. Wasn't too bad and I didn't get hurt but maybe go tandem with your FH? Personally I would think you would be fine.

You can always call the doctors office and ask.

I know it's not the same...but how I landed when I went skydiving I would def. call your doctor and ask. Don't want to hurt your little peanut.

I would say any extra risk would be a bad idea, you just never know how things will turn out so it's better to avoid the things you can

Parasailing is dangerous even if you aren't pregnant, you still risk getting hurt.. a risk is a risk no matter the odds :/
I know, I'm totally bummed to not be able to go on roller coasters at the fair this year

I wouldn't risk it. I know some say you land safe but I don't trust it. That's like saying when you fall down the steps you don't get hurt.... Well sometimes you do and sometimes you don't!

I would call the dr office. My mom was allowed to water ski when pg, the doctors wife did through 7 pregnancys. So I would think an early pregnancy yes. But I would ask the dr first.
