It's okay: It's okay to go to a gun range if you are 11 weeks pregnant. Of course, you may not lay on your abdomen to shoot from a "sniper" position. Be sure others around you practice appropriate gun safety to avoid accidental discharge or injuries

Shooting range: As long as their are no accidents, it will not harm the fetus to go to the shooting range. Reasonable precautions should be taken to protect yourself as a pregnant woman, of course.

Yes: There is no harm to the baby by being exposed to loud noises in the gun range. However, do keep in mind that there are other dangers in a gun range. Make certain to follow appropriate safety precautions.
