Honda CR-V: Advice for Pregnant Women
Honda CR-V (2006–2011) Owner's Manual / Driver and Passenger Safety / Protecting Adults and Teens / Advice for Pregnant Women

When driving, remember to sit upright and adjust the seat as far back as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. When riding as a front passenger, adjust the seat as far back as possible.
This will reduce the risk of injuries to both you and your unborn child that can be caused by a crash or an inflating front airbag.
Each time you have a checkup, ask your doctor if it’s okay for you to drive.
