I will be 16-17 weeks pregnant during our vacation and was wondering what I should not be riding. Of course no roller coasters, no Dinosaur, no rapids, no Splash Mountain, no Tower of Terror, etc.
 
No Star Tours (is it open yet?).

allears.net has a complete list I think

ETA: Primeval Whirl too
 
no safari at animal kingdom... trust me... you will be in pain after so not worth it. All water slides are off limits pregnant... careful in the wave pool, no rollacoasters, i'd avoid tea cups but that's just me i don't like them on a good day. Your not supposed to go on the tomorrowland speedway incase someone bumps you from behind. Splash mountain, though of all the big rides this is the least bad but any degree of bad is not worth it right?

No tower of terror either. Also I suggest avoiding toy story midway mania this one doesn't restrict pregnant women I think, but it really hurt it just jerks around too much.

And no hot tub at the resort.
 
Check The Unofficial Guide. There's a section written by a pregnant woman on what else not to ride - things you wouldn't consider, like Splash Mountain because of the low seating and the resulting compression you may put on the baby. She was, I think, much farther along than four months, but maybe not. It's pretty short. You can probably read at the library or in a bookstore if you don't have a copy, but it's been the same for several years.
 
I was about 16 weeks and did the safari and tsm. I avoided all the rides you mentioned too
