If  you operate a float center, than you have heard the question “Is floating while pregnant a good idea?” a thousand times, I’m sure. So is it a good idea? What are the benefits specific to a pregnant woman? Is there anything to be concerned about?

 Important Note: Any woman who is going to float while pregnant should get the approval of their midwife, OB or other provider beforehand. There may be special considerations that your provider is aware of that we or you might never consider. So whenever someone asks if floating while pregnant is okay, please always let them know they should talk to their doctor first.

We also hear all sorts of stories about different baby activity while floating. Whether its doing loops in their newly spacious home or simply having a zen moment with mom, it can all happen in the tank. Can you imagine how much stimulus is coming in to a baby all the time?
