Default Pregnant women suffer seasickness more easily

Hmm.. sailed to the Farallons on a Mason 43. One of the crew was
a pregant woman, probably in the last 2 month of pregancy.

It was pretty rough that day, and she, along with only one other
person managed not to get sick (I wasn't the other one).

"Some women, when pregnant, must refrain from time on the water due to
severe bouts of naseau. Not only is this recommended for the comfort of

the
lady, it is imperative for the safety of the fetus. It has been found

that
the fetus can suffer from motion sickness also. This puts baby at greater
risk."
