Am I allowed to go snowmobiling while pregnant?

26-year-old womana year ago
Hello, I just found out that I am pregnant (2 - 3 weeks, according to my last period). I have a snowmobile trip planned for next Saturday, it's the first time I'll be doing it. I'm wondering if it's not recommended to go on one.

Hello!
Snowmobiling during pregnancy is not absolutely prohibited, but moderation is required. In fact, the usual safety measures on the trails apply to make sure that the ride is safe, but these measures must really be respected (whereas they may not always be respected in normal circumstances by people who are a bit reckless ;)). In this case, the most important ones would be:
  • Respect the speed limits
  • Adapting driving to the weather
  • Keep a good distance between snowmobiles
  • Respect the signs
  • Keep your eyes on the road and be careful when crossing public roads

Great, thank you very much! I was worried. We will be on a compliant track and we will be very careful. Thank you and have a great day!
