spring babies - are you taking a babymoon this winter? where?

Went to the Alps over the winter and the flight was difficult. Compression socks and consuming tons of water didn't help much. I was surprised how awful I felt in the air, considering I didn't have any sickness to date.

Just took a short trip--but ate some lovely food and threw up constantly (which I did for the whole pregnancy). If you feel fine, take a few days away nearby. The thought of a long flight is not appealing tome.

I'm due early March and we just did a trip to a snowy cabin about 5 hours drive. Driving was so much better than flying (I did a 7 hour flight at 28 weeks).

We have older kids so they were with us and we did skating, sledding, walking in the snow. I didn't skate or sled but enjoyed being outside while the kids were and then we spent lots of time in the evenings in front of the fire - board games with the kids before they went to bed and then cosying up with DH and eating nice food once they were asleep.

We didn't plan it as a 'babymoon' but it felt like a lovely last vacation before we are back into the newborn days.
