Going on vacation while pregnant: destinations to avoid

If you're dreaming of a vacation by the sea or in the mountains before your baby arrives, don't worry, but there are certain high-risk areas you should avoid.

Forget about certain tropical countries to avoid exposure to infectious diseases transmitted by mosquitoes.

  • Choose a destination where the medical infrastructures are good.
  • No one is safe from a small health problem.
  • Stay below 2000 meters of altitude to keep good oxygenation.
  • Finally, pick a destination where you can easily find fresh, quality local food.

Before booking your trip, consult your doctor for advice.

Does anyone know how fast you can get pregnant after a miscarriage? I found out I was pregnant December 8th, but was on vacation at the time so I couldn’t get in to see my ob. I had all of the symptoms of pregnancy (hence why I took the test) but unfortunately had a miscarriage on the 17th the day before coming home from vacation. My period is pretty regular and I should have already had it and it been over, but it hasn’t come yet and I’m scared to test because I’m still trying to work through the miscarriage. Anyone have any advice?

TW: this has to do with yeast infections I’ve been getting chronic yeast infections throughout my entire pregnancy. I’m 13 weeks and have been dealing with this since day 1. I’m on vacation right now with some family, last week I did a 3 day monistat which seemed to have helped for only a couple days. Then during my vacation it’s back to a full blown yeast infection. I’ve been doing apple cider vinegar baths and also drinking shots of ACV as well to help, but I’m really concerned. Any other moms dealing with this sort of issue? Please share what’s worked for you 🙏 I feel like I’ve developed an immunity to monistat or something like that, really anxious.

Did you speak with your doctor to see if they may prescribe you something?

5 weeks sounds faster when awaiting a vacation or the holidays. In pregnancy days it still seems like forever. Come on October please 🙏🏽

The only bad thing about this pregnancy is the fatigue. I am so tired 😴. I don't know if I can work 6 more weeks solid. I'm already taking off 1 - 2 days per week with my vacation hours so I don't exhaust myself.

Hello, ladies! This is my first post. I need help! First time trying for a baby when we were on vacation in Mexico. Felt weird all week, supposed to have my period today, but I'm late. My boobs hurt so bad, can't even touch them, don't sleep good, and I pee a lot. I took 2 pregnancy tests - all negative. I don't know what's happening

Yes I’ve traveled To Colorado and was like a 6-7 hour drive if you do drive it’s best to take little stops and stretch
