I am just curious which DL/CA rides have pregnancy restrictions. I will be around 18 weeks when we go in October. I know I should avoid the roller coaster rides but I am not sure what else.
 
This is what I'd avoid (though it'd be kinda hard for me to get pregnant ;) )

DL: Space Mountain
Star Tours
Matterhorn
Mad Tea Party
Big Thunder Mountain
Splash Mountain
Indiana Jones Adventure
Gadget's Go Coaster maybe not

Maybe not Autopia either in case you get bumped. You never know.

DCA: Tower of Terror
Grizzly River Run
Mulholland Madness
Maliboomer
California Screamin
Orange Stinger
Sun Wheel

I'm pretty sure Soarin would be ok because it's really gentle.
 
From what others have told me... Avoid anything with a height restriction....

Easy way to go and remember
 

The last time I went, I was in my second trimester. I actually had a chat about this with one of the castmembers. I was disappointed, because I didn't get to ride on anything good. I was talking to a SM castmember, and they were telling me they see pregnant people go on roller coasters all the time. They said they wouldn't stop me, but they would discourage it.

Of course I didn't do any roller coasters to be on the safe side, but I did Autotopia and Indiana Jones. I kind of held onto the bar on the IJ ride so that I wouldn't be thrown around. It was definitely okay. I actually did not mean to go on that ride. I was in line for 40 minutes or so, and it wasn't until I reached the head of the line that I saw a sign. The CMs there told me I would be okay, so I went ahead and did it. I had been on it in the past, and had an idea of what it was like.

I forgot to mention, that there are signs that let you know whether or not you should ride while pregnant. It's up there w/ the heart failure and elderly.
 
They will usually post signs at the entrance to each ride and along the queue.
 
There will usually be signs to tell you if pregnancy is a factor. Otherwise, like other people have said, anything with a height restriction is probably a "no no" since those tend to be jerky or bumpy etc. I went a few years ago when I was about 6 mo pregnant and I went on most of the FL rides, Pirates, HM, and a few others. I just avoided the coasters and we didn't go on Star Tours (it makes me sick anyway) and Autopia (line was too long).
