Camping while pregnant?

Question

Hi, I am FTM 24weeks..we have anual camping trip coming up in couple weeks. I am not sure if it's a good idea to go for camping. Have you guys been to camping when pregnant? Any advise ? Thanks!

Answer

Very hot so stay hydrated, take an extra pillow because idk about U but my Back has already been aching for months now! Definitely bug spray with DEET now that Zika mosquitos have been found in Miami, Fl (not sure where you're located)

Answer

Get a very comfy camping chair. I got one that reclines, my back hurt so bad and it was the only thing that helped. Also, make sure your air matress doesn't pop 😢😢

Answer

I was suppose to go camping this coming weekend but decided not to go 😔. 26 weeks pregnant and the weather has been very hot and humid, so I wanted to careful. I also worry about being around too many bugs. If you have a good tent/shelter and it's not too hot where you are, I don't see their being a problem! But might be a good idea to ask your doctor or midwife

Answer

Thanks ladies.. I have decided not to go. It's going to be 90 there and the restroom facilities are not that great either.

Answer

I'm going camping in 2 weeks. I am not a camper in the least bit, but my hubby's parents are seasonal campers (at the same place since he was 2years old) and the campers are throwing us a baby shower.  Also his uncle sells campers and is going to let us borrow one for the weekend.  I'll have AC and a bed... it shouldn't be too bad.

Answer

I'm going camping at the end of August and I'll be 30 weeks then.

Answer

I'm planning on going camping at 30 weeks, bu is car camping with facilities. It's also at the beach, so I can cool off in the water. I am planning on borrowing a better air mattress. If I'm miserable, we'll come home early.

Answer

I've been camping almost every weekend since it got warm. I was around 19 weeks, I'm now 27 weeks and still plan on a few more trips. Air mattress and my pregnancy pillow make for a good nights rest.

Answer

I went camping around then with my first and it was fine. Air mattress was pretty uncomfortable but other then that idk why you wouldn't be able to.
