Traveling during pregnancy

The period of gestation is traditionally considered to be a time when a woman needs positive emotions and full rest. It is also believed that the future mother needs to enjoy as much as possible beautiful and spend time in a pleasant atmosphere. A little picture and get pleasant emotions will allow travel. How to do it competently, so as not to harm the baby, we will consider in this article.

The best time for a "pregnant" vacation

To begin with, let's figure out what term the journey will be to joy. It is absolutely certain that the first three months for vacation are not the best time. Toxicosis, constant fatigue and drowsiness, a sharp reaction to smells - all this only darkens rest. And there will be too little time to collect, because you need to register, pass all the tests.

Starting from the seventh month, you should also beware, because from this time there is a possibility of premature birth. Yes, and constant swelling and urge to the toilet does not contribute to a full active rest. What is left? Remains the second trimester. This is just the time when all the "delights" of pregnancy begin to pass, and the dangers of the third trimester are still far away.

There are a number of circumstances when from any trips to a great distance will have at all. Before the trip, be sure to discuss this with a gynecologist. It is better to refuse a trip if:

Where will we rest?

Even the most capricious and unpredictable pregnant woman will have to take into account her special situation and choose the safest options. Exactly exotic in an interesting position is not the best solution. Asia, Africa or Cuba will wait a few more years. In addition to a long flight, you will find yourself in a completely different climatic zone, which will result in temperature changes and acclimatization. And the probability of encountering specific diseases during the period of gestation can turn into anything. Choose countries with similar climate conditions. You can go to France, Spain or Switzerland, the Baltic countries will do. And it is even better to have a rest in the Crimea, visit Seliger or Valdai. This is a more economical vacation, and the location is much closer.

What are we going to get?

Most often it's a plane. If you can not refuse a flight, you will have to learn how to behave correctly. You can not stay in one place for a long time. Try to walk through the salon, move your hands and feet, perform some simple exercises. As for risk, during take-off and landing there is a possibility of vessel shrinking due to differences in atmospheric pressure. This can lead to premature detachment of the placenta.

A safer option is train. But only the lower shelf and only the coupe or CB. If you can get there by car, it's best to choose it. On the road, you can make stops. In the car it is necessary to provide comfortable conditions: a supply of drinking water, compotes or juices, cushions under your back and light snacks.

What shall we do at our leisure?

It is clear that climbing a mountain or underwater excursions with an instructor is taboo for you. But this still means that it will be boring and apart from a chaise longue and there are no other prospects. Ideally, this unity with nature: fishing, walks in parks and forests, boat trips on the water. Be sure to spend a lot of time in clean sea water and do gymnastics there, sign up for different spa treatments. In other words, relax and rest as much as possible!
