A member asked:

Can a 7 month pregnant woman ride a jetski?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Preferably not: There is an increased chance of injury as your balance is affected. I recommend my patients don't ski or use jetski's in the last part of their pregnancy.

Discourage it –: The national transportation safety board stated “personal watercraft have no braking mechanism. They coast to a stop, and while coasting, there is no turning ability.” tom ebro, president of aquatic risk management stated “what makes personal watercraft so ultra-dangerous is the fact that it will not steer when you suddenly have a surprise and let off the throttle.” jet skis are rudderless.
