Pregnant on holiday and seeking advice

Hello ladies. This is my first pregnancy so hoping this is not a silly question but after a bit of summer holiday advice. My DH has just booked us a break to Cyprus to get over a stressful few months. I'm 18 weeks pregnant and looking forward to going away for some alone time, although just found out that temperatures over there at the moment are almost 40 degrees celsius! That's scorching!!

Anyone else been on holiday when pregnant to somewhere this hot? I don't sunbathe anyway but walking in the sun is unavoidable to some extent as we don't have transport. Is this in anyway dangerous for the bump?

Be interested to hear your experiences and any advice. I'm usually a heat-lover but I'm guessing the pregnancy experience will change all that this year....

Keep hydrated and don't overheat - they tell you not to have a v hot bath in pregnancy, so similar sort of thing! If you get too hot (esp where the bump is) then wearing a wet T-shirt over your bikini is bliss! Make sure the hotel has good air con too!
