Babymooning: Get away while you can!
Way back in early 2000, before my first child was born, my husband and I took a couple trips and knocked some things off our life lists, you know, before the kid arrived to change everything. When I was 5 months along, we went to Hawaii and played golf in Wailea. While 6.5 months pregnant, we played Pebble Beach (did I tell you my golf game was awesome when I was pregnant?). And at 8 months, we ate dinner at the French Laundry in Yountville, California.
Nowadays, there is a term for this kind of pre-birth couple bonding – Babymooning. And apparently it is a growing segment of the travel industry. The idea can be varied, from providing a relaxing environment for couples ready to conceive, to helping couples traveling in the second trimester of pregnancy enjoy a last fling before baby arrives.
