A member asked:
My niece is 3 months preg...goin to a beach, but ? is..is it safe 4 her 2 go "tubing" if boat goes slower 4 her?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If the boat or tube strikes an unseen underwater object(a rock) and your niece "falls" out or is hit in the abdomen a pregnancy in the first trimester can be lost, the speed of the boat notwithstanding.
