Planning a couples holiday is always exciting, but there are a few things you need to do before you pack your bags for a babymoon vacation.
Check with your doctor to get the ‘all clear’ before booking and heading out on a babymoon vacation, and keep them in the loop about your destination plans. Purchase and pack approved medicines that you can bring along should you need them.
The best time to plan a babymoon is the second trimester, after the period of morning sickness has (hopefully) concluded, and before the final few months when you may not want to be far from home. Buy adequate travel insurance that will cover ‘pre-existing conditions’ i.e. pregnancy, and review the policy before you leave.
Become familiar with the location of medical clinics or hospitals near where you plan to stay. It’s better to be prepared than be scrambling. Determine where you want to go, and how you want to get there – plane, train, automobile, ship? Getting there is half the fun! Choose a mode and destination that you enjoy and are comfortable with.
