Going to WDW 16 weeks pregnant!!!!

[olivia's mommy]

We are expecting DC#2 this February!!! After two heartbreaking losses in the last year, we are so thrilled. I am going to be 16-17 weeks PG and staying for one week. I am glad that I will be out of T1 but I know it is still going to be exhausting! And ofcourse I am really looking forward to all the food but sad that I have to miss out on some of my favorite rides (ToT is my FAVE!). So any tips from other mommies that have been PG at WDW in T2? TIA!

No tips for you (newbie to WDW), but wanted to express my sympathy for your losses. We just lost a full-term baby boy this year.

We are hoping to be preggo again soon and are visiting WDW in October. So I'll have to watch your thread just in case I end up preggo at WDW too!

Have fun, congrats, and best wishes!

I have been pregnant with both my kids at WDW ( DS 2 and DD2months) both in the first trimester.
I love ToT too. What I did, because I love the pre-show as much as the ride, is I went through the pre-show and then took the chicken elevator back and DH went on the ride.
The biggest thrill I got all week for both pregnancies was the drop on pirates.
Make sure to drink lots of water and enjoy yourself!

I will be going next month at 21 weeks pregnant.I am planning on it being a very laid back trip-my dd loves to swim so she won't be to upset at the lazier pace.I think it will be a great trip just different than some of my past.I do plan on enjoying alot of mickey bars though!!

Congrats!! I did WDW when I was about 20 weeks pregnant with my 4th son (my older three boys were 6, 4, and almost 2 at the time). You are going at a great time as far as pregnancy goes! I was not nearly as tired as I thought I would be. The fun of it all keeps you going. We did our next trip when our 4th was 11 months old...so I did my favorite thrill rides then. It's good you're going when it won't be too hot. Our pregnant trip was in early December. I wore stretchy/comfy yoga or track style pants and my short sleeved maternity tops. And comfy sneakers!

I went to DW last year at 28/29 weeks pregnant. It's totally doable! Drink lots of water and have fun!

We'll be there about the same time as you and I'll be 16 weeks also! (August 23-29) I went at 17 weeks with my 1st and 2nd kids, and other than the morning sickness that followed me on the trips, I had a lot of fun. My MS tends to drag on till 18 weeks or so, hopefully you won't have that issue.

Tip - You can rent a cart to sit in, relax and have fun.

Me too! I'll only be 9 weeks, though. We had to let my sister & her family know since DH and I are usually the ones taking Dnephew on all the wild rides...

Since we've been there quite a few times, I plan on taking it VERY easy. I just hope the heat/humidity don't get to me.

Good luck with your pregnancy!!

Congratulations! We're 2 weeks back and I was 30 weeks. It was fine but we didn't do anything "thrilling" -- mostly small world and the train for DS3. Drink your water, sit when you need to and eat regularly.
You won't be that big yet at 16, but I found the maternity belt a life saver at 30 weeks! Maybe a bellaband will help at that stage with all the walking??
