If you’ve been following along on Instagram for just about any time at all by now, I’m sure you have clued into the fact that I am obsessed with Disneyland!  Living less than an hour and a half away from the parks makes them all too accessible on a Friday afternoon for a quick stop.  Daniel and I have been visiting them quite a bit recently, and I have gotten quite a few questions about what I can and cannot do in the parks while pregnant.  So, today I thought I would share my tips on what to do at Disneyland when you’re pregnant!

Being pregnant definitely doesn’t disqualify you from taking part in all the great things the Happiest Place on Earth has to offer!  Daniel and I still have the best time at the parks when we go, and we went three times during my first and second trimesters.  Just a disclaimer: I am not a doctor, and every pregnancy and individual is different, so make sure you check with your doctor before you head to the parks! This is just what works for me.

Rides

Obviously the aspect of the parks to take the most caution with when you are pregnant are the rides. In a quick summary, I got the go ahead from my doctor to ride any ride with the exception of “the mountain rides, Guardians of the Galaxy (previously Tower of Terror), Indiana Jones, Autopia, and any roller coaster.  Other than that, he said I should be good to go!  There are tons of other rides you can enjoy while you are pregnant at Disneyland or California Adventure!  Here are some favorites that my doctor gave the OK to:

• Soarin’ Over the World (previously Soarin’ Over California)
• Pirates of the Carribean
• Haunted Mansion
• Jungle Cruise
• It’s a Small World
• Peter Pan’s Flight
• The Little Mermaid
• Toy Story Midway Mania
• Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
• And so many more!

Rides are only a small part of why I love Disneyland so much, and really the only restricted thing white pregnant!  Other than the rides, be sure to take advantage of these:

Shows & Parades

Disney puts on some of the best shows and parades in the world!  You can still take full advantage of these during every stage of pregnancy, and it will give you an opportunity to rest your feet 😉.  Here are some of my personal favorites:

• Fantasmic!
• The Electrical Light Parade
• Mickey and the Magical Map (shaded!)
• Fireworks
• Main Street Parade (this changes seasonally, but it is always so fun to watch…with a snack 😂)

Speaking of snacks, one of my favorite parts of Disneyland (pregnant or not) is the food!  Since I have been pregnant, we have really enjoyed going and treating ourselves though…haha!  These are some of my favorite quick things to grab while we are walking around.

Snacks & Treats

• CHURROS
• Beignets (the best place to get these is the Jazz Kitchen in Downtown Disney)
• Popcorn
• Corn Dogs!
• Starbucks Hot Chocolate (I love hot chocolate, but if you are looking for a Starbucks, there is one on Main Street in Disneyland and one inside the park, near the entrance of California Adventure)
• Fresh Baked Chocolate Chip Cookie near the Incredicoaster (these are new!)
• Icee’s
• Soft Serve Ice Cream on Pixar Pier

The bottom line is, going to Disneyland while you’re pregnant is still so much fun and definitely something you shouldn’t avoid!  Get proper hydration, rest when you need to, and take advantage of all the exercise you’ll get walking thorough the parks all day (just wear comfortable shoes!).
