Everyone’s heard of taking a honeymoon; the romantic getaway after one of the biggest days in a couples life. A new trend that I’ve started to notice is the increase in the number of couples seeking a babymoon. Essentially it’s a vacation that a couple would like to take as the last time for just the two of them, before the arrival of their bundle of joy.
Some people go on a babymoon prior to conceiving, while others decide they need to take a trip once they find out they are pregnant (I fall into the later of the two categories). Most of the expecting couples opt for beachfront resort vacations. Since most of my clients are from the Greater Toronto Area in Canada it’s understandable. Flights to the Caribbean are relatively short with many specials available in this highly competitive market, making it also an attractive deal for most.
The only restriction is that most airlines will not let you fly if you are in your third trimester. Be sure to speak with your doctor prior to narrowing down your options. He/she can provide valuable insight into which areas would not be advisable for a pregnant woman to travel, and also which areas would require immunizations prior to travelling. Other things to consider if you’re travelling while pregnant is easy access to washrooms (I know this first hand). Taking a long day tour by taxi is fun, but stressful if you are in remote/rural areas... and a small being has kicked your bladder from the inside.
