In 11 days ( :bounce: ) DH and I will be leaving for WDW! Woo Hoo!! I'll be around 18-19 weeks pregnant. This is our first child, so everything is so new to me! I've already talked to my OB/GYN about the trip, and she gave me some tips on surviving the 11 hour drive. I already know which rides to avoid. Any other tips that I may not think of? So far I've had a great pregnancy...no morning sickness and the fatigue has worn off.

I just want to make the most out of this trip. We had a big trip planned for my graduation in May, but had to cancel it. This trip originally was only going to be for 4 days w/ the high school where DH teaches (he's a percussion instructor)...they are marching in Share a Dream Come True on March 6th. But we decided to add on a few days for us to enjoy alone. :)

Thanks!

Make sure you dinks lots and LOTS of water. Try to breaks and get off your feet for a while. Eat well.

I heard you need to eat lots of chocolate covered pretzels and lots of ice cream :teeth:


Have fun :)

If smells are bothering you, carry around lemon wedges so you can smell them when you come across a bad smell.

Pack your biggest clothes. I grew really quickly at that point in my pregnancy. If you don't have maternity clothes yet, you may want to get a few before you leave.

Kermit...I already bought maternity clothes to wear at WDW (even found a mickey shirt at Sears!). I told DH that I'm wearing the maternity clothes even if they are a bit too big...I wanna look pregnant in pictures and NOT just fat! LOL! ;)
