Safety Concerns of Riding a Roller Coaster While PregnantAlthough the jarring force is usually less with amusement park rides, it still warrants precaution. Although there are women who have been pregnant and ridden the various thrill rides without complication, it is a risk that should be avoided.
It is totally possible to do Disneyland and have a great time while pregnant. It can still TOTALLY be your Happiest Place on Earth! You'll need to allow for extra rest, don't push yourself like you did when you were 18.
But as a basic safety guideline, roller coasters should be avoided during your pregnancy, particularly in the later phases to avoid any harm to the infant.
Currently, there are no studies that document a problem with roller coasters while you are pregnant. Similarly, there are no studies documenting that it is safe either.
Unfortunately, pregnancy is not deemed as a disability, and is not a part of the DAS program. However, what you can do is look into wheelchair or ECV scooter rentals to make travel throughout Disneyland Park and Disney's California Adventure Park easier for you.
As long as there are no underlying complications, I'm fairly certain she'll get a green light. All of that being said, she'll need to take it easy, take breaks, stay well hydrated, and avoid the 'thrill' rides (i.e. Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain, Test Track, etc).
With ticket prices skyrocketing, the idea of a lifetime pass to Disney Parks is a dream for mega Disney fans and regular theme park goers alike. One theory that has been circulating for years, is that if someone gives birth inside a Disney Park, then that child earns a lifetime entrance pass.
Toddlers (1- almost 3 year olds) are a great age to experience Disneyland! At this point, they'll be old enough to go on many of the rides and enjoy the shows. They're also likely more aware of their surroundings and can better appreciate Mickey Mouse, princesses, and other characters.
Roller coasters, bumper cars, and water slidesRoller coasters, bumper cars, and other rides with jerky, bouncy movements are a definite no, since a forceful landing or sudden, jarring start or stop could be dangerous. Also avoid water slides, which can cause you to hit the water with too much force.
