I drove to work everyday when I was pregnant… until I feel the contraction pain on a Friday… work half day and go KK.
The steerling wheel of my car is higher… so no prob when driving hehe

Hihi! I'm currently in my 11th week - First Trimester. I was going into my practical driving lessons before I know I am pregnant. Issit okay to continue learning as my tummy is not so big now? Will the school forbid lessons for pregnant women?

hi pwiincess, it shld b alrite. i used to go for practical lessons when im pregnant and my instructor was aware of it. (fyi, mine is pte instructor so not so sure abt learning sch) mayb u shld inform ur instructor abt it so they wun b asking u to do the emergency brake which could affect the baby.. only when abt to take TP, will need a doc's letter to be excused from the e-brake and also to let the tester know b4hand.

k i'm bringing out this topic again. i'm 30 weeks and my gp just told me to stop driving even if i can push the seat back if the belly reaches the wheel. his rationale was when you drive, the feelings you get while on the road e.g. anxiety might trigger off hormonal changes within the womb that bb feels. and it's alot safer not to drive during the last trim. so i stopped anyway the seatbelt is getting way too uncomfortable..

what are your inputs, current mommies who are still driving?
