Is it sensible to be planning a day trip to the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas when Im 6 months pregnant?

Question

Not planning on doing any hiking or driving to the site for that matter- just plan to sit on the bus and see the sites along the way. Any advice? Is the road bumpy at any places? Is it too tiring for pregnant women. I do get a bit of swelling if Im on feet all day so- dont want to take any chances. So all you travelors out there please let me know! Thanks!

Answer 1

It is approximately 5-6 hours from Vegas to the Grand Canyon. ONE WAY!!!! Make sure there is a restroom on board the bus that works or you could be in trouble. You may spend 2-3 hours at the Canyon. Is it worth it? Yes!! Being Pregnant and going? NO!!!!. Let everyone else in the party go and treat yourself to a massage or pedicure at a spa.

Answer 2

dont do it...its an all day trip......hot lots of walking ..you might get really tired but you should ask your doctor and you know your body

Answer 3

Ask your doctor.  Or call up a nurse hotline.  To do that perhaps dial 0 and the operator can direct you maybe.
