Disneyland is a perfect place for walking – in fact, we just covered how you could get your steps in and stay active at the parks while pregnant. However, we know that pregnant moms-to-be (or any moms for that matter) need a restful, quiet, “thotful” spot sometimes to rest their feet, recharge batteries, or just relax when the rest of their party wants to go, go, go. These quiet spaces are especially helpful when your Disneyland companions want to enjoy attractions that expectant moms might want to avoid and you just want to sit, enjoy a snack, or just watch people...

Pregnant at Disneyland: Counting Steps & Staying Active!
January 18, 2018 in All Posts, disneyland resort, pregnant
The Disneyland Resort is one of my favorite ways to get in a LOT of steps. Whenever I would visit pre-pregnancy, I noticed I was logging an average of 10,000-15,000 steps (according to my FitBit) – this is a combination of making your way across the different lands and standing in line. Being pregnant at Disneyland gives me a different excuse to roam the Parks. While I can’t partake in the attractions that might be too bumpy for my bump, I explore the walking paths at Disneyland that often get overlooked during the rush for rides. Making sure to take frequent breaks to rest my tired...

This post was updated January 2018. While planning a Southern California vacation, it’s natural to have visions of sunshine and short sleeves. When days are filled with gray clouds, do not fret; most attractions remain open when it rains. Some attractions with outdoor tracks, parades and outdoor shows may close, but there are still plenty of indoor attractions and activities to stay busy.

Are you pregnant and planning a trip to the Disneyland Resort? There’s an old wives’ tale floating around that states that Disneyland becomes absolutely “no fun” when one becomes pregnant. The Happiest Place on Earth is a place is meant for families with children or childless adults who love Disneyland, according to these naysayers. We’ve heard it all before….. “You can’t go on any rides.” “You’re going to be so hot, so tired, and so bored.” “Why would you want to waddle through Disneyland while pregnant?” “There’s absolutely nothing for a pregnant woman to do at Disneyland!” Well, whether you’ve just...
