But by 10pm, I was back to starving and ordered a sandwich. 
I cruised pregnant twice late last year at 6 and 17 weeks. It was fun, but I was a little queasy most of the time. I was queasy on land, too, so might as well be queasy on a cruise!
They didn't ask for a note, or even how far along I was, and I was visibly pregnant at 17 weeks (hello, third pregnancy). Somewhere along the line I clicked a box online that said I wasn't entering my 24th week at sailing, so they take your word for it.
There are lots of "rules" for eating and drinking while pregnant, so you just need to decide which ones you feel matter. This was my third pregnancy, so I have done plenty of research on the actual risks. I ate a turkey sandwich most nights for dinner from room service because it was all I could stand to eat. Yes, there is a slight risk of listeria from lunch meat, but I had to decide: starve or "risk" it. Most nights in the dining room I requested potatoes for dinner. That was all I could handle in the MDRs. But our server was great. By night 4 or so of our 7-night, he was bringing me plates of whatever potatoes were on the menu that night
If you are cruising out of port Canaveral, the last night is the worst for motion. If you have morning sickness, be careful what you eat on the last day, no matter how you feel during the day. A hamburger was not a wise choice for me. Enough said.
On a related note, know where the bathrooms are near each restaurant. Food smells were the worst for me. Again, enough said.
We love Mixology and had a group planned from before I found out I was pregnant, so I just paid and went along. I would have one taste of the drinks I wanted to try and then give them away. If you want to make friends fast, that's the way to do it
If you have any specific questions, let me know. Despite the morning sickness, I still loved cruising, and I hope you do too!
Well, they had it on our recent cruise:
AHHHH BLESS DISNEY CRUISE LINE!!!
... which ship was this? ...well, I assume they all do the same tough...?
Well, that was on the Dream, but the Fantasy had it also (I just didn't have as good a picture there):
). I would request a MS med from your doc just in case and try "preggie pops." I had so-so experience with them, but many women swear by them. I also carried around one of those menthol sniffer things you use for colds. It looks like chapstick but you sniff it. I never need it either, but I figured if I got into a situation where a smell set me off, I could mask the smell with that.
. But I do have twins in there and have been showing since 7 weeks, so I suspect those issues won't effect you.Hey, do you sail on Sunday? We are on that cruise!
Thank you! (It was the same here!) Congratulations to you, too! I can report back after our trip, if you like!
Just returned from a 6 day WDW and 4 day Dream last month. I was 17/18 weeks during the trip with TWINS. There is being careful and then there is "being careful." I opted for the latter. I rode aqua duck 5 times, ate whatever I wanted, sipped on dh's alcoholic beverages, and even spent a few minutes in the hot tub (if you start to sweat you have been in too long). I am now 21 weeks and the monsters are doing fine. I went through the metal detectors without flinching. Doc said there was no safe sea sick meds sadly, BUT I was totally fine which surprised me. My MS came back after the cruise at WDW (bad incident on a bus one night, don't ask
The one thing that surprised me was how big I was. The theater seats were not comfy (apparently my hips had already separated) and the seat belt on the plane only had a few inches of extra length. If we had traveled any later, I might have needed a belt extender!
Congratulations on your twins!
I'm not sure what your doc was referring to "there are no safe sea sick meds", as they are generally the same as the anti-nausea meds, and luckily there are several that are "Class B", like Zofran and Reglan, and that's as good as it gets!
Everyone has a different medical history, risk factors, and past experiences, so there are many reasons for different levels of 'careful' !
Preggie Pops - still haven't gotten them, but they are on my list!
Menthol sniffer: the mere thought makes me a little sick right now...
I'm glad that your twins are doing fine! It sounds like you had an awesome babymoon!!!
