Pregnant women suffer seasickness more easily
 

"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."

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).

Not too worried. We've already spoken to doctors about it. Note the source
listed was 15 years old! The biggest risk aboard is heat, as Jeff pointed out.

Actually it is mold spores in the bilge and cushions.

Search mycotoxins and related toxins. Largest cause of spontaneous
miscarraiges.

It seems that only one as arrogant as you would conclude that your
particular life experiences, however misguided, are the rule for countless
others.

For further edification on how much you've missed the mark, I would suggest
searching on the noted publishers, Selchow and Righter. They are above
critcism and highly regarded.

Hmmm, My wife sailed right thru her pregnancies, My son was probably
concieved on a yacht.
She gets totally debilitatingly seasick for 3 days of every month like
clockwork and did so right thru the pregnancies.
We actually plan passages around it those days.
Both children were born without complications and are well above
average in all senses.

Ithink that you'll find this is another publication from those who
believe that the best policy is to live your life totally encapsulated

I would think getting bumped hard would also be a risk factor.
Of course, in calm water that's less likely.

Of course it's a risk as is getting in the car to drive to the yacht.


Anyone who puts a pregnant woman in a car is clearly trying to kill the baby.
It's the #1 killer.
I can't even find a statistic for boat related cases.
Silly thread in any case.

What a pile of bunk. Seasickness is most often an ocular/aural =

in utero than any other movement that the mother performs. As far as =
the nausea goes, unless the person wretches uncontrollable and =

100% correct. Unless the baby has visual orientation it's unlikely to suffer
from any kind of seasickness. Walking or driving would be far more jarring.
That must be some study!

They interviewed babies and they remembered being seasick in the womb!

I won't bother, I know of not one sailing woman who has had a
miscarriage while sailing or in the months after sailing.
I know quite a few who don't sail and have had problems.

Maybe your researchers could look at cars, busses, planes and any
other form of transport where motion sickness is a problem for some.

Maybe they would suggest that a woman who suffer car sickness should
walk rather than ride to ensure the safety of her fetus.

I wonder if they looked at the health benefits of sailing for pregnant
women as opposed to those sitting on the couch watching TV (is there
an exposure risk there) while being fed chocolate by the dotting
father to be.

Donal, your preoccupation with money is a real worry.
Try a hobby to take your mind off it.

Excuuuuse me!!!


I don't boast about my wealth on Usenet. I would find such behaviour to
