Typical babymoons
On a New York Giants message board I was reading an off-topic post about babymoon experiences and thought I would share with you what New York Giants fans have been doing for babymoons recently:
Front Row Endzone: Although the wife did get depressed on tequila night when everyone else was drinking and having fun. Went to Maroma, an exclusive resort south of Cancun.
BUgiantfan: The Mrs. is about 5 months along and we're going to Sanibel Island, Florida. We're going ahead with the trip even though I insist we have no money. She immediately pointed out my silliness in considering our financial situation. Never even heard of such a thing.
Mwheeler: My wife and I went on an cruise to Alaska before our first one came along. She was about 5 months pregnant at the time. I didn't consider it a "babymoon", rather our last chance for a nice vacation for the next 20 years.
A week or two before our second was born her parents came from out-of-state and took care of our daughter for a night while we hung out at a nice bed-and-breakfast across the street from the hospital. My wife had been having contractions fairly regularly since 32 weeks and had been on bed rest for a number of weeks, so we wanted to stay close.
Adevin: We decided to stay away from the resorts and do something with a 5 hour drive. Yes a 5 hour drive can be painful with a pregnant woman. There is a great Hotel up north Lake Placid area the Mirror Lake Inn. Plenty to due, some shopping for her good food and a spa. Plus you can relax and enjoy each other.
Jim: Wife is due in April. We have a 1 1/2 year old, so we figured we better do it now before we're in lockdown for 1 - 2 years. 5 days/4 night in the Bahamas.
Well that's it. Just thought it would be fun / different to share a few babymoon ideas from regular people who've done it.
