Anyone been Pregnant on a Cruise? 🛳

Question

I’ll be 19 weeks when we hit the seas for the Bahamas for an 8 days Royal Caribbean Cruise. Leavening from NYC, We are only in Mass so we will drive to the city, no need to fly! Yey! 
Any tips or tricks for cruising when preggers? 
I’m terrified I’ll get SEA SICK now that I’m more sensitive. At 15 weeks I am still nauseous and sick anyways! 
Also the SPA doesn’t seem to have any maternity specialty’s. I wonder if they will even take me!!?

Answer

I tuck a cruise when I was 13 week, I didn't get sea sick but I got a nasty cold. Make sure to ask your doctor  for a note that includes if you are fit to travel, when are you due, how long you will be when the cruise starts and ends. If the cruise line notice if your pregnant and you dont have this note, they are not going to let you in, it's on your contract! I'm a travel agent its happens a lot!

Answer

Zika has been taken off the CDC’s list for Bahamas as a location. My family and I already chose for those two days I might stay on the ship, and relax.
As I said I will be 19 weeks pregnant, I already called the cruise line and they made that clear but I have NOTHING else to work with. 
Does anyone has experience with the spa? 
Apparently if you LOOK pregnant they treat you differently on the ship... i will of course have a note (which Royal Caribbean doesn’t even require apparently) but because I look very pregnant even at 15 weeks now, I might draw some attention. So I’ll be safe and bring a note anyway. 
I’m terrified to be turned away at the spa or even worse get sick on the boat! 🤞🏼🙏🏽💕

Answer

Have you checked your destination(s) for zika? I woulf be worried that some of these tropical islands have exposure to zika.

Answer

I worked for carnival a while back.  They don't let you cruise 24 wks and after.  Sometimes,  before 24 weeks they had women get a doctor's note that said all was well,  especially if they had complications prior.  The medical staff is trained medical professionals and if any issues,  they dock and get you to a hospital.  Hopefully that cruise line works about the same.  You'll be fine,  and good luck on not being sea sick.  I'm nauseous thinking about it lol

Answer

I would be more worried about Zika than the cruise itself. I’m sure you’ll be past the point of sickness at that point. I’ve only done one cruise in my life but the boat is so big you don’t feel it rocking or anything like a small boat, so I’m sure you’ll be fine
