is it safe to jump on a trampoline while pregnant?

Q: Not do flips and all, not even jump high. Just mild jumping to get your heartrate pumping and stretch ur calves. Like, low jumping..no tricks, nothing. I’m 12w3d pregnant and lie to jump on my dghtrs trampoline but want to make sure its safe..either now, or as I get farther along. ( I’m not talking a mini trampoline) In other words..I lift my heels and bounce.

A: Let me explain the reasoning behind everyone saying no. If during the session on the trampoline you are rowdy enough it may, just may cause the placenta to separate from the uterine wall which can lead to anything from a slight bleed (it could happen) to a miscarriage (worst case scenario). This is the same reasoning why you shouldn’t get on a roller coaster during pregnancy, the g-forces can pull the placenta off the uterus; again this can be very mild or it can cause a miscarriage. My suggestion is just don’t do anything crazy on the trampoline and you will be fine, trust your instinct you will know when you need to stop. Good luck.

Is it safe to “butt bounce” on the trampoline while pregnant?

Q: I’m 9 weeks pregnant and was babysitting tonight. The kids have a trampoline and wanted me to jump with them. I did a TINY bit of light bouncing and landed on my butt a couple times. Is this safe? Could i have caused a misscarriage? I’m so worried! I didnt even think about it, because its my natural instinct on the trampoline. I didnt jump high into the air first, just kind of landed lightly on my butt. PLEASE let me know! Thanks.Thank you SO much to everyone who answered, I feel at ease now. And trust me i will NOT be on the trampoline anymore! Wouldnt want to hurt my baby unintentionally. Thanks again.

A: if anything bad was going to happen, it would have happened by now, you would have felt sick, or felt crampy, or bled. So, don’t worry about it now. too late to worry. too late to do anything about it anyways. you’re fine. don’t worry. That siad, I wouldn’t be jumping on the trampoline anymore. I know it’s fun, but, yes, you could hurt yourself and your baby unintentionally.So, forget what you did, you’re fine. however, don’t do it again, just in case, because you don’t want to push your luck, make sense?
