A member asked:

I'd it safe to swim in chlorinated water pool during pregnancy ? and go to water parks staying in water for hours ? i'm 13 weeks pregnant

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ok: Yes, it's ok. Don't do anything that would force water into the vagina, such as some of the higher slides. Also don't get overheated in a hot tub/pool - this can be like having a fever and is not particularly good for your baby.
