Usually when the cycling stops, that's the first indication of pregnancy.

I only recall knowing one person who commuted by bike, and who became pregnant. That was a coworker who never stopped commuting to work by bike, I think up until the day before she went into labor. She got some flak from coworkers, but I respect it!
My impression is the worry is that a fall could cause injury. But as my wife put it, "Unless you're planning to live in a pregnancy bunker, live your life!"

If they are Dutch, just for the brief moment they are giving birth 😝

Hi! I'm a mom of 3. I biked until it wasn't comfortable for me, something like 35ish weeks, with my dr's approval. I did crash once when I was like high 20s weeks, doing something dumb. No ill effects, fortunately. I have friends that biked longer, but as in all things pregnancy, it's really variable how your body's going to feel and you just gotta go with it. Happy to chat more, feel free to dm me!

Never, a pregnant friend biked to the hospital to give birth !

Before any "fake" call : she had no contractions and was cycling to her after term appointment for a c-section
You stop cycling the moment you are 2, bicycle is a word for a reason.
maybe a home stationary cycle might be an option?

I broke my collarbone, got a concussion and got a really bad scar on my knee when I had a really bad fall off a bicycle.
I can't imagine a similar fall would be great for a fetus.
