I've never been on a babymoon and the more kids we have, the less likely it is to happen. If you could just cast aside jobs/finances/childcare, where would you go? Vote for whatever is closest to your ideal and then share the details of your dream trip below.

A cruise. I'm nauseous anyway, so what's a little seasickness?

Into the wild! Think mountains, desert, forest, somewhere beautiful and maybe a little isolated.

I'm a recluse. Leave me alone. I refuse to take an imaginary babymoon.
Mine would be revisiting where we had our honeymoon (near an ocean). If I weren't pregnant, it would be touring Europe . . . but that wouldn't be a babymoon.
We got married in Mexico and it was awesome. I would love to go back to an all-inclusive resort and bask my lazy butt on a lounger and have waitress bring me virgin daiquiris all day.
Into the wild! I love camping but have really only done it in northern MN. I have traveled through Montana and I would absolutely love to be able to go camping there, maybe at the foot of the mountains with a stream nearby, and just relax. Cook over a fire, drink coffee and read when the sun comes up, just taking in nature.
My DH is not a camper so with DD we took a little trip up north and stayed in a hotel right near Lake Superior
We will visit London at our babymoon:) well, don't go too far away and don't jump into adventure choose cities wisely. For example India or Egypt is at my list but we won't go such places at this term we are at Europe so we will stay close. And it will depend on your flight time, sicknesses, different air conditions.. Consider all and stay safe:)
Hmm mine is a toss up. We accidentally ended up on a baby moon. We planned a trip to hike Mt. Rainer, the Redwoods, and stay on the Oregon coast for a few days. When our trip rolled around I was 6.5 weeks and sick the whole time. So ideally I'd re-do the whole trip. Got sick and DH said no to hiking Mt. Rainier and climbing Redwoods. I did enjoy the beach in Oregon. Especially because it was a constant cool 65-70 degree ocean breeze. Too cold to feel self conscious about wearing a bathing suit or summer shorts but warm enough to lay on the sand, wet my toes.
I'm already on my warm island (I live in Honolulu, HI), but what I really want to do is go home for the holidays.
It might not be too long for some people, but I haven't seen some members of my family for almost two years and that's long for me. My husband can never get leave to go home for Christmas because the president always vacations here and they won't give military permission to leave (Thanks Obama!) so we were trying for Thanksgiving... but I may not even get that since my work may not give me the time off. I just wanna see my mom.
We just came back from our week long baby moon in Las Vegas. I'm 14 weeks and it was agonizing to be in Vegas and I couldn't have a drink but I made the best of it and we had a great time. We also visits the Grand Canyon which I'd never do with young kids way too dangerous .
