    Yes the woman is pregnant, but if she wants to go and her dr ok’s it, then go………..She may have to rest a little more, but she can use those times for her other child to rest by napping or a play time . The woman and bf can go off on their own and do a few things without the mom and child at that time. Personally I wouldnt want to go with someone that complains all the time. Plan those times for mom to rest , maybe it will be an afternoon or evening time to give mom a rest if she wants it .She wont be able to ride some of the rides anyways, and her little one wont be able to ride some of the rides, so that also could be a rest time….If the woman still wants to cancel, cancel her and enjoy your time with the others

      I went on every ride in the parks when I was 7 months pregnant…. it’s about how the pregnant person feels. As for the other woman, she is self-centered and needs to be knocked down a peg or two and taught that it’s not all about her.

      1. I agree 💯

    She is expecting way to much out of a trip to Disney. If your expecting a perfect trip, don’t go anywhere. Disney has it’s faults you will hate the wait lines, and maybe the food. Expect less and you will have a good time, if you can’t stay home!!!

      This trip is supposed to be for her niece and she’s worried about a pregnant person who is also going. She doesn’t care about the lines or food. She doesn’t want to go because SHE is afraid SHE wont have the perfect trip because of someone who it pregnant.

      1. Dawn

        Her boyfriend’s niece…. not hers, so it’s not even her family. She needs to grow up and realize that life is not about her.

    First, tickets are NOT refundable! She needs to do her research! Second, this isnt about her. It’s for her niece and if the pregnant person needs to stop, so be it. Our daughter was 6 months pregnant when we took her at Christmas and she did fine and if she needed to stop, she did and we either stopped or kept going and she caught up. She even sat in the stroller we got for our 8 and 5 year old! This lady is all about the trip being for her and that’s all she cares about. But she needs to learn she cant get a refund. All she can hope for is to reschedule it, meaning her boyfriend’s niece wont get to go for HER birthday!

      Looks like the rest of the people going are still going, including the boyfriend (saw this elsewhere, with more details). She is just pissy over her and her boyfriend not going by themselves. Self-centered and egotistical.

      Ryan: When I have gone many times in the past I have made changes and had the option to cancel for refund 30 days before arrival date. I had used Travel agent who books directly with Disney. There is a room deposit at time of booking. Final full payment due 30 days before arrival. So depending on how the reservations were made and time to arrival tickets can be refunded.

  4. Very well said, The Magic experience is for the Kids.
    If I was him, I’d rethink my relationship with this person.
    This selfish attitude is what separates families.

    …..I would back out of the trip because of all the nonsense with “Park Reservations”, Genie+ and “Lighting Lanes”

    I mean, Who wants to spend their vacation to a major theme park with their nose firmly stuck looking at a cell phone app?!? Not to mention how convoluted it is and how you are competing with TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE just to try and ride 4 or 5 rides all day?? And don’t even talk to me about what its like to try and book a ride on “Rise of the Resistance”!!

    I have heard story after story of first timers experiencing this and making the decision to NEVER COME BACK! Disney has truly BLOWN IT with this all to OBVIOUS CASH GRAB that has become a NECESSARY EVIL if you want to go to Disney……

    Bring back “Fast Passes”, true “Annual Passes” (no ‘reservations’ required) and MAYBE I will come back…..as a MANY MANY MANY MANY time annual pass holder since the 80’s as a teen, I remember how REALLY MAGICAL the place USED to be…..now- NO WAY!!

    1. Just like the OP, you aren’t commenting about the selfish woman, you are commenting about how Disney’s rules and nuances affect YOU. Well, my friend…this article nor the Disney Parks you’re complaining about are about YOU.

        This woman is way too self centered. It’s not like it’s her birthday trip. Grow up lady, you are supposed to be a grown up. Act like one

    My husband wants to go, so we’re going in January, but I’m worried about the reservations for every meal, the long lines and the crowds. I’ve gone to Disney many times, and I loved it, but I liked the freedom of going to any park, any time, finding a place to eat when I get hungry. I used fast pass, but I waited in a few lines for attractions I really wanted to experience. It doesn’t seem like a vacation when I have to schedule the whole thing. The last time I was there, it wasn’t as clean or well cared for, and the food quality is just not there.

    Trust me,you won’t have a awfull time,even if you have to take a couple breaks. Disney is breath taking even with a couple glitches. And your not paying! Is it worth such a decision with your boyfriend? Maybe one day he’ll take you there for a ingagment ! Just you and him. You’ll miss out more then being inconvenienced..

  8. Karen Jackson

    Disney World has those sit down handicapped scooters. Use one for the pregnant lady to get around the parks. Just don’t get run over by the senior citizens who like to drag race each other with them.

  9. Nicole

    Honestly after reading her viewpoint, I think she is doing her boyfriend a solid because she will just be a miserable brat during the trip. He should go and spend time with his family and niece and have a blast! Then come home refreshed and decide if this is truly the person he wants to saddle himself with for the rest of his life.

  10. C

    I agree with her. Sometimes the people you go with ruin the trip. It’s more fun when you control your itenerary.

  11. Where did my comment go? It was kind of funny.

  12. Oh well. Goodnight all!
