Cruise Ships and pregnancy...

[mrobinson]

So as some of you might know, I've kinda stepped away from scuba because I'm thinking more about kids than water... I've been in a forum for mothers and someone started talking about cruise ships and their pregnancy policies... I remember here awhile back, learning about cruise ships, polices towards dumping garbage, bla, bla, bla.

Obviously the points about needing travel insurance, motion sickness, and such have been discussed but what was striking to me was the idea some lines have guidelines at all about pregnancy.

:05: So I wondering what you guys know about cruise ships and pregnancy. Any and all info is great. (No one who is preggo is scuba diving.)

I believe cruise ships can cause pregnancy... be careful!!

Most cruise lines are unable to accommodate women beyond their sixth month of pregnancy and will not be responsible or liable for any complications related to pregnancy during the entire duration of the cruise.

No antiemetic has been shown to be entirely safe during pregnancy. Preventive antiemetics should only be used in pregnancy in consultation with an expert on the use of drugs in pregnancy.
