Babymoons are a discretionary expense, and the cost varies significantly on income and circumstances. Most people pay for babymoons with a variety of income sources rather than, say, just a savings account. To avoid going into debt while planning your babymoon, you need to have a solid understanding of your finances.
It's both an homage to your life pre-baby and a way to celebrate the onesie-filled road ahead. If this is your first baby, a babymoon sets aside time for you and your partner to have the romantic alone time you'll crave when you have a demanding new family member.
Babymoons are typically two to four nights long, but there are no hard and fast rules. If you prefer a week-long getaway, then go for it. Likewise, even an overnight babymoon at a wonderful inn or spa can be rejuvenating so don't let time constraints keep you from taking a pre-baby getaway.
Transport: How to travel on a babymoonIt's important to check with your doctor first, but women with an uncomplicated pregnancy can normally fly until up to 37 weeks of pregnancy (32 if pregnant with multiples), although after 28 weeks you tend to need a letter from your doctor to confirm it's considered safe.
If you are without complications, traveling up to 36 weeks by car or air is acceptable as long as you are aware of the potential risks. Complications such as hypertension, preterm labor, and premature rupture of membranes often come without warning and can occur quickly requiring medical attention.
In regard to pregnancy, the best time to plan a babymoon is usually in your second trimester, between 14 and 28 weeks. And though you can usually fly up to 36 weeks, it's always best to check with your doctor before booking that ticket.
Babymoons aren't a growing trend in travel only for the Hollywood elite: Almost 60% of parents-to-be report taking a pre-baby trip, making for more than 2 million babymooners in the US each year, according to a survey by Liberty Travel and BabyCenter.com.
