Pregnancy on Board

Hi,
I was pregnant and had both of my children on board. The first I made the crossing from Hawaii to Seattle at 7 months pregnant. I don''t recommend that. Wow! It is amazing how much you use your stomach while sailing. My second I was in a berth most of the time, though we did some small trips.

There is no reason why you can''t be pregnant and raise your children at sea. After 20 years of sailing both of our kids are now in college and better people for having lived at sea.

Follow your heart and trust in yourself. You will be fine.
