I have an interesting question! I am super short, like 4'9". I only work weekends, but since it's a 30 minute drive…

I have an interesting question! I am super short, like 4'9". I only work weekends, but since it's a 30 minute drive there I can't have my husband just drop me off. My stomach legit touches the steering wheel now and I can't reach the peddles if I move the seat back. Should I stop driving? I don't want to lose the small amount of hours I am getting if I am unable to continue driving lol Interesting question, but any advice is greatly appreciated!

haha!! At least you have a personal driver :) My husband hates driving lol Plus I'm one of those that HATES when others drive me. It's scary lol I am 31 weeks so I guess I don't feel so bad being too fat to drive haha! I feel like if I was taller I wouldn't have a problem! @mrscruz0530

Yes it sucks plus having the seat belt get right on my stomach I hated it ! I stopped driving when I stopped working at 30 weeks after that I rarely drove it's funny because I had just got a bmw a few months prior and now I never drive because I stay in the back seat so I basically bought my husband a bmw lmao

Yea it sucks needing to be so close to the steering wheel! I don't have to sit so close in my other car, but it won't make the drive since it overheats and we can't seem to fix the problem with it. It really bites. How far along were you? @mrscruz0530

Definitely speak to your boss about it being a safety issue!

Yea, that's what I have been thinking. May have to talk to my boss, since he wanted me to work up until labor if at all possible. And I agree, it's super uncomfortable!!! I can reach the peddles but only if I'm sitting all the way up, and then my belly is on the steering wheel and you're not supposed to be that close NOT pregnant. Thanks for the response! Being short is a pain in the ass sometimes lol

Driving was ALWAYS uncomfortable for me. I HATED driving. I'm not as short as you, so I didn't have that problem, but I feel like driving will always be uncomfortable pregnant just like everything else is. If you can't touch the peddles anymore then that's a safety issue, and the most important thing is baby and you to be safe. So maybe it's not a good idea.

I'm driving myself. I have just decided when I'm in labor and have to go to the hospital. I will be the one driving that hour and a half to get there. I think my husband would freak out too much bless his heart and he is at work all day anyway. And my grandma.... Heck no. Everyone complains I drive like crazy. I'm actually super safe. No one has rode with her. I love the woman but she drives like a lunatic. I seriously am scared to death she will wreck one day. And even more when I'm in the car with her. Not to mention she doesn't do well under pressure or if emotions are high. And I would have to be the one telling her where to go and to stop going 90 mph anyway. Id rather be more focused on breathing than if I am going to survive the drive to the hospital or not. So it's decided. I'm driving myself.
