I would totally go right away EXCEPT for this dumbass Flu crap-ola makes me not want to fly so probably not until LO is a year for us but Yeah I'm itching too!! I need a beach!
Yeah...we haven't traveled all year and won't for a while. We won't have any money during maternity leave, so we'll have to have a staycation in our home.
I was thinking when LO is a few months old, a weekend drive to Palm Desert would be nice, but DH's work and school schedule will probably get in the way.

We are delivering January 4th..our first "vacation" will be Mother's day..only bcuz there isn't another one really coming up..I had dd on June 26th and we went for a weekend vacation the 1st of September..It wasn't too bad..there was some extra planning and such, but with patience we all survived..
The earliest we are going on vacation is Vegas in April (DH's birthday) & Hawaii in May (1 yr anniversary). Baby will be 5 months & 6 months old ... we don't want to go any time sooner then that .
We'll be driving across the country to visit family for the holidays when LO is about 3 weeks old, but that will hardly be a vacation. We plan to take a long weekend trip for our anniversary in March, though.
not a vacation per say but my annual girls weekend is scheduled for March 19-21 and i am not missing that! so about 2.5 months after baby is born mommy leaves for a girls weekend
Oh no why haven't you been anywhere since Spring Break? I went to DC in April, NOLA in May and Vegas in August and I'm still feeling like I have the travel bug.
We aren't planning on anything right away but would really like to celebrate our 5 yr anniversary with a little getaway to Chicago for a night or two. My mom may offer to keep LO we will see. Our anniversary is early Jan but we really don't plan to go until later winter/spring. Also I'm starting to think about a beach vacation in the summer w/ LO.
haven't gone anywhere because we were short on money since we had to pay our home birth midwife out of pocket. But now that that's paid, I'm thinking about traveling.
We're planning to go visit my mom (a snowbird) at her condo in Florida in February for a couple weeks. That should be about 3 months after baby is born.
DH isn't much of a traveler and really only likes to go see his family back east, which is not something I'm interested in doing when I DON'T have a child . . . so we might go somewhere next year for Xmas . . . key word = might.
Re: how soon after delivery will you go on vacation?
when we 1. have money and 2. have time
so in other words, probably never.

Hahaha- THIS. DH is in grad school and then will be furiously busy trying to get tenure as a professor. Soooo maybe, 10 years? : -
Vacation, what is this that you speak?
A real vacation...hmmmm..... We're looking at a week or so in Charleston,SC in about a year...next October. LO will be about 9-10 months old.
I am not counting the trips back home to visit family or for weddings and stuff like that, To me, that's more work than a vacation
Hadn't heard this. The ladies on the travel board apparently haven't either. many are flying with their LO barely a month after birth.
