Keep calm

Try to keep this vacation less stressful and well-planned as you've already been under a lot of stress during pregnancy and will be even more stressed after the baby is born.

In addition, organize aisle seats on direct flights or choose a road with plenty of bathrooms.

Think about what to eat at your destination

Food has the power to heal, and attractive, healthy meals and snacks are especially important when you're expecting a baby.

Find out in advance about the food culture, availability, and reviews at your destination. Make sure it meets your dietary requirements. Avoid anything exotic.

It is recommended to always carry water and some healthy snacks with you.

Make sure there is a good hospital nearby

It is extremely important to have reliable medical care near your hotel, no matter where you decide to travel.

Make sure the region you are travelling to has a population that speaks languages you know or that you are familiar with the native language. This will make it much easier to treat a medical emergency.

Ask your hotel about their medical services.

Take regular breaks

Taking a break doesn't mean you're missing out. Instead, it will recharge you and give you the energy to enjoy the hours ahead, which is much better than feeling exhausted all the time.

Since pregnancy can cause physical discomfort, be prepared to adjust your schedule in case of unexpected pain or fatigue.

Dress comfortably

It is important to feel comfortable during pregnancy, and this is especially important when travelling long distances.Thus, dress comfortably.

It is recommended to have a pair of compression tights and comfortable shoes.

In addition, bring a variety of clothing items that will help you refresh yourself on hot days or wrap yourself up when the temperature drops.
