BTDT Moms- Sesame Place while preggo

DH and I want to take DS to Sesame Place this summer. We were thinking around July 7th. I will be 34 wks preggo.

Good idea or should we go earlier?

TIA!

i'd probably go a little earlier. But it all depends on how you feel. by 33 weeks i retained soooo much water that i dont think i could have walked around a place like that.

Re: BTDT Moms- Sesame Place while preggo

I have never let pregnancy slow me down and I've had two summer ones. Last year I went to Dutch Wonderland, Lake George and drove 10 hours to NC all between 22 and 32 weeks pregnant. I also danced all night as bridesmaid at 33 weeks in July of 2005 and the following week went to DC and walked all over the world there (although, I admit, THAT wasn't so much fun )

So, I say go! It's a pretty small place, IMO. Just stay hydrated. Trust me, you will see TONS of pregnant mamas there!

ETA in response to the post below...Id also recommend June, however. I went in mid-June and it was less crowded, etc. Also, a couple of weeks earlier might make a difference in how you feel.

I think I would go earlier.

I went to Disney at 21 weeks and it was fine, had no issues "keeping up".

Went to the city for the day around 33 weeks and it was much harder...I had to rest more, take more breaks, I was exhausted the next day, etc.

Plus in July Sesame place is going to be really hot and crowded. We went in June and although it was hot when we went there were no crowds as school hadn't let out yet.

We went in late July last year, I was about 26 weeks and it was hard because it was hot. We just didn't do a lot of the dry rides. Staying hydrated was key. I spent a lot of time in the COunt's Splash Castle thing and on the Lazy river.

I've been to Disney World, Disneyland, and Sesame Place while preggo.

I would def see if you could go a little earlier. I know towards the end even if I felt good I didn't want to be standing the whole day and out in the heat.

ETA: As PP said we spent most of our time at the Splash Castle where I could just sit in the water or on the edge and relax.

Re: BTDT Moms- Sesame Place while preggo

I have relatively easy pregnancies, I am very active, commute into the city and walk across town every day, paint the house, clean the bathrooms on my hands and knees, still go out in 4"stillettos etc etc .........

I wouldn't want to be walking around Sesame Place in the middle of the summer @ 34 weeks - It's hot, it's crowded, it's a long day, you're chasing around your kid(s) .......KIWM?

Can you go earlier ??
