I shouldn't respond to this but I will. I have two toddlers. The last vacation I took was in 2018. My husband and I were both essential workers who went though hell during covid. We saved up and are staying at the Waldorf, the first vacation we've been on solo since our honeymoon. We flew up my in laws and parents to take care of our kids, the first childcare we've had since 2019. Selfish? You bet! Women aren't just vessels for pro creation. I get to have a life too. I would rather drink bottled water and eat saltines the whole time than cancel.
And Zika? There was one confirmed case in Mexico in 2020. Zero in 2021. 50 in 2019 There haven't been Zika cases in Cabo ever.
Troll harder you absolute moron.
Are you going to Cabo OP? We leave on Sunday and I can't wait (I'm not prego though)
. Go! Have fun!

Gosh you’re right Mexico is the ONLY place in the WORLD right now to vacation! You’re the moron.
My guess is you are 57 years old and not a mother.
31 and pregnant with my second. From south Texas where people go to Mexico like they go to Annapolis here. You can practically walk, and it’s well understood you don’t go when you’re pregnant. Moronic.

Lord. People on dcum are so very anxious- to the point of debilitating.
Go, have fun, use common sense.

No raw fruits and veggies, no ice, no frozen smoothie type drinks, no deli meat, no water, no ceviche, no unpasteurized cheese. Personally, I wouldn’t go because I’d blame myself even if o had a natural m/c which would be very common while you are on your trip.

I would avoid all cheese. Google CDC/Listeria/Queso Fresco -- lots of mexican cheese-related outbreaks, even if pasteurized.

+1 DCUM is not representative of most people. Posters on here default to finding any reason to believe a woman is a selfish and terrible mother.

I was about 6 weeks pregnant in Mexico and had no idea. I was so thirsty all the time and the smell of food was nauseating. I thought it was just being in Mexico and maybe some food poisoning. Found out it was something more when I got home. My 10 year old is perfectly fine.

What is your point exactly? Are you implying that Mexico is the only place one can get food poisoning? Or get Zika? That everywhere else is safe?

Ugh I got food poisoning from going to Cancun years ago and had violent diarrhea on the plane and we only ate in tourist areas. I probably wouldn’t go but that’s just me. It’s almost impossible to follow all the rules of what to avoid eating.

I was 4 weeks pregnant with twins in Mexico (I didn't know yet!). All I wanted to eat was rice and beans - couldn't stomach anything else. I was fine. Just stick to bland, cooked basics. No dairy, no raw fruits & veg. You will be fine.
