Go kart racing pregnant?

Question

What do you think about going go karting at about 8 wks pregnant? Are there many risks involved in doing this?

Answer 1

I would advise against it.  A sudden jolt or crash could injure you and in turn injure or kill the baby.  

Answer 2

No you shouldn't. If you hit something or flip it can be dangerous.  

Answer 3

I would have to say no.

I love go kart racing but it's very very jarring - they go quite fast and I was in a mini go kart "accident" - if you could even call it that and I pulled some muscles. It just wouldn't be an activity I would do while pregnant.

Answer 4

I went go-kart racing at 16 weeks pregnant. No complications. Just kept yelling at all my friends that they weren't allowed to hit the kart with the pregnant lady in it! Hehe

Answer 5

DO NOT DO IT.....YES THERE ARE RISKS!!! YOU COULD GET HIT BY ANOTHER GO CART, FLIP OVER, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. YOU CAN WAIT 7 MORE MONTHS!!

PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!
