anybody ever take a baby moon?

Question

I'm longing for some alone time with my hubby and someone suggested a baby moon. (Take a little trip before baby) we never did it with our first but now I'm thinking it's not a bad idea since we'll have two. Question is where do we go? How long?

Answer

My husband and I did back in June, I was close to 7 months by then. It was just a quick weekend trip to Los Angeles, we flew there from San Francisco (where we live, about a one hour plane ride). We flew down early Saturday morning and came back early Monday morning. We basically relaxed, ate, and shopped. My feet were really swollen afterwards from the airplane ride though! 😭
I have friends who have gone to Hawaii or Paris and somewhere closer to where they live.

Answer

It's kind of odd that a babymoon is now considered a vacation before baby comes. This has only been so in recent years. My knowledge of the term is that it's the period after baby is born when you are bonding with baby. It's a play on honeymoon which is the time after marriage when a husband and wife bond. But anyway, just thought I'd share my thoughts on that..... A vacation before baby comes is a great idea. Go someplace relaxing, like the beach or a lake!

Answer

We're planning on going either to Berlin, Barcelona, or Amsterdam!! He grew up in Berlin so we have been meaning to go there together, Amsterdam is his favorite city & I have been dying to go, and neither of us have been to Barcelona but it's been on our list! I'm excited but it will most likely be this fall/winter so not exactly the picture perfect typical baby moon you'd think of..
