Your baby is arriving soon, and you are preparing yourself to meet dirty diapers, long nights without enough sleep, and of course the happiness of parenthood. However, before your baby comes to this world, you think about traveling on a trip or vacation of your choice and feel the freedom, and it is called the babymoon.
Future mothers should take as much leave as possible before the nine months pregnancy come to an end, and caring about your new baby born will be your job 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. We recommend it to do this in the second quarter. American Obstetricians and Gynecologists point out that most emergencies occur in the first or third pregnancy trimester and traveling after the 28 of pregnancy may be uncomfortable for you. Plan your trip taking into consideration the following travel pregnancy tips:
Standard Car Trips
American Obstetricians and Gynecologists advise the pregnant woman to not drive more than four to five hours every day. After 5 hours It will not take you through the country, but it will cheer your weekend up. Do not forget always to put on the seat belt in the car and regularly take breaks and eat well.
Air Travel
Before booking the flight always ask your doctor. However, it is usually safe during pregnancy to take an airplane and travel. Check with your airline first, because you may not be able to fly in the last month of your pregnancy or the flight staff may ask you for a medical certificate before the flight. We recommend you to select aisle seats to maximize flight space. Drink plenty of liquids during the trip to prevent dehydration.
Trips To Avoid
You should wait after delivering your baby concerning some types of trips. Cruising can be relaxing, but food poisoning such as norovirus can also be exposed. This kind of illness quickly spread to passengers. Contact the Disease control Center to determine if the cruise line you are considering has done a food safety control. Overall, it may be better to postpone your traveling until after giving birth. You may not be able to get the same kind of nausea medication while seasickness.
Trips abroad are not recommended in South America, Central America, Asia, Africa and other areas where Malaria is a Problem. An American obstetrician and gynecologist, suggests sharing your concerns with your doctor, before making a decision. It is a disgrace to avoid these traps, but to be optimistic “prevention is better than cure”. When your baby is older, you can plan a romantic holiday to celebrate a special day.
Special Travel Precautions
Before you call the travel agent and book your flight, you should first talk to your doctor, particularly if you are in the third trimester.
You can easily forget something because you are well aware of your health when traveling. You may not notice that you forgot your bag. Protect your baby and yourself before traveling, by setting up your identity theft monitoring System, just in case you become a vulnerable fraud target. Portfolio-loss alerts, identity threat alerts, and credit monitoring can help you respond effectively to all threats.
The Center for Disease Control offers pregnancy health Kits. They provide prenatal vitamins, vaginal cream, yeast infection remedies, talc and blood pressure monitor, including basic first aid items. Your doctor can advise you on safe medications that you should take during pregnancy. Think of some healthy snacks to prevent the craving desire pains while traveling.
To sum up, all that has been said above, the kINGDOM OF BABY advises you to stay in your house, and give yourself as much rest as you can. Eat good and suitable food so your fetus can come to this world healthy and does not have any physical issues. Otherwise, in case you need to travel follow the steps listed earlier or travel during the first trimester when your baby is not moving yet.
