A holiday at 28 weeks?

[lucylookout]

I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant with ds2. He's 4 so my last pregnancy seems a long way off. I'd like to go on holiday with dh and ds before new baby is born, but because we're waiting for some money to be paid to us, can't go before the end of April. I don't like flying, especially not pregnant, so we're thinking of getting a Eurostar to Paris, spending a day or two at Disneyland and then getting fast train to south of France. I know every one is different, but does this sound doable at 28 weeks? I did have SPD with ds, but have been super careful this time and so far it's hardly bothering me at all (just at night). Sorry! I know it's a bit of a pointless question, it's just I want to have a nice time with my lovely ds and would like some reassurances (or honest warnings) about my holiday plans!

I went to Spain when 26 weeks with DD3, it was lovely - short flight, no jabs needed and lots of sunshine and swimming!

I personally wouldn't do Disneyland when pregnant (I found it exhausting when not pregnant).

Even if you have an EHIC you will need travel insurance - there are limitations in provision with an EHIC card.

I personally wouldn't do Disneyland either, particularly with SPD that could progress by 28 weeks. (I also have SPD and have had amazing results from seeing a chiropractor BTW).

I went to New York at 16 weeks pregnant with DC1, and although it was fine, I was more easily tired and had to sit down a lot in the museums!

I'm now 22 weeks with DC3 and planning an all inclusive beach holiday at 28 weeks - lots of rest and relaxation with full use of kids clubs for the DSs!

I'm on number 1, due mid August, but I'm being an optimist and thinking it will be fine. So far I've felt great. I'm spending two weeks in Croatia when I'll be about 26-27 weeks then a week in Germany with work when I'll be about 30. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the fact that we'll be driving to Germany in quite a cramped van. I may have to try and get a cheap flight and get them to grab me at the airport at the other end.
