I'd agree that outside stimulation is probably fine. Vibes, there may be a very minimal risk, but dildos would be fine, as would regular pee-pees.
Is it safe to use vibrators when you're pregnant?

Depends on the person and their pregnancy, but mostly yes.

I know this doesn't make a good poll question, but popularity votes could play a distinct role in answering this question.

I used vibrators when I was pregnant without any problems although when i started to leak fluid I had to stop. I wasn't even allowed to have sex and figured vibrators fell in the same category.

I think it would have to depend on the intensity of the vibrations, the duration & the frequency. If it is a "normal buzz buzz" vibe I would say it is safe. If it were powerful I'd stay away. Also was the vibe for G-Spot or clitoral stimulation.
But I'm sure you can find that almost everything is unsafe while pregnant these days

I believe depending oin your sensitivity ex: material irritation and UTIs. I believe you dont want anything that may lead to complications. Therefore, I say yes just make sure the quality is top notch!

My instruction/owner's manuals from LELO caution against using a vibrator during pregnancy. I would think that outside stimulation of the clitoris and labia would be fine, but internal vibration of the vaginal canal would definitely impact the fetus since the vibrations carry through tissue. For example, when using a vibrator vaginally, a partner can feel the vibrations when penetrating anally (and vice versa: when using a vibrator anally, the partner can feel the vibrations when penetrating vaginally).
Vibrations could possibly impact or disrupt the neurological development of the fetus and there is a remote (but possible) chance that it trigger early labor. Like choosing to chance a sip of wine during pregnancy, I would chalk this up to be something one should approach with caution. I see nothing wrong with using a non-vibrating dildo for gentle thrusting, however. Just don't thrust vigorously enough to bump the cervix.

I'm definitely not an expert so I marked unsure. I think any sex toy company would say not to use their toys while pregnant just to protect themselves from possible lawsuits. All I know is my wife used them internally during a previous pregnancy and now during our current pregnancy and no ill effects or extra-early deliveries so far. She's never been high-risk or anything. It may be one of those things where you have to know your own body.
