We are not planning on tubing, skiing, anything crazy like that (i obviously know that is off limits). But I’m 29 weeks, live near a lake, own a boat, and am dying to get out on the water. I am not nervous about getting nauseous, or anything like that. I just wanna make sure that the motion of the waves rocking the boat are safe for the baby. We just wanna go out, relax and maybe take a swim, thats it. Please no smarta$$ answers.

I’ve been on a boat plenty of times while pregnant and it was fine. My doctor was more worried about me getting sick from the motion, but I did just fine. The motion is actually quite calming to the baby. If it is relaxing for you, then it is a good thing. The less stress for you is great for the baby.
It is safe to go on a boat. Like you said, just don’t do any of the sports, the rocking will only bother you if you get motion sickness. As long as the boat isn’t bouncing you around.
Baby might fall out if u hit a wave.
That sounds like it would be perfectly fine. I can’t wait ’till we go and visit my uncle inlaw for his boat >=]
