Tell me he's wrong....

You must have been tired after being pregnant for 24 MONTHS

I went at 22 weeks preggie, and it was awesome. However, by the end of the week, I can say I FELT 22 MONTHS pregnant!

With our trip less than a month away, DH is finally ready to start talking about it. I was talking to him today and he mentioned that he doesn't think I will be able to do much. I will be 21 weeks pregnant. I told him that if I don't get things done it will be because of DD, not because of me. I told him that DD goes super slow in DW and this, coupled with our GAD FP and the fact that we will have almost 8 full days means that I should get plenty done. We went to the zoo last weekend and I will admit I was ready to leave after 4.5 hours (so was everyone else) but we walked almost a mile from our car to the zoo, we tried to stuff too much but not enough water into the stroller and I think the only time we sat down was to eat lunch. DW is much more of a 'stroll' type atmosphere (at least with DD it is). So please, tell me that DH is being overly paranoid and that I will get to do plenty. I feel the need to hit a lot of the MK stuff but we have 2 very long days there. The rest of the parks have a handful of things that interest me and honestly, mostly things that I know DD will love (totally prepared to spend hours in the Boneyard). I can totally see DH taking the older kids and leaving us behind (well, as much as the kids will let him, I know they are super excited about watching DD too).

Well as you've read, people have come up with lots of great stuff you WILL be able to do. But even when it's something you can't go on, WDW is great for atmosphere and "people watching" ... I myself have been known to grab a bench and just do that and not even because I "had to" ...

Have fun!!

My DW and I went last April and she was 7months pregnant. We had a great time. There really are only a few rides you can't ride, and there is always a place to rest and "people watch" as xipetotec mentioned.

Just rest if you start having contractions and drink LOTS of water. The trip will be no fun if you're dehydrated and feeling sick.

Believe me, as much as they will get a kick out of seeing your DD experience Disney, they will have no problem leaving you behind with her. Sitting around watching Daddy's new kid play in a kiddy area will be fun for about 30 minutes, then they will be dying to go do something more age appropriate, and who can blame them. This is their vacation too. If you plan for that and schedule time for them to go have big kid fun, everyone will have a much better time. If you make it a battle between your DD and your stepchildren, then it will be a disaster.

To those that have helped to reassure me, thank you. Totally looking forward to sharing popsicles and sitting back while DD explores. And to those of you concerned about the older kids, they are going to have a blast. They have both (yes, even the 13 year old) told me that they are so excited about riding Dumbo and the carousel with DD. They are both sad for me because I won't be able to ride any roller coasters. I told them to not be sad because they will be getting my GAD FP that I can't use. I know they are not going to be with DD and I the whole time and I don't expect them to be. I know there are a lot of rides and shows that we can do together but I also know that it would not be fair to make them hang out in the play areas where DD will probably be happiest. They are great big siblings and at no point will they be forced to hang out with DD and I if they don't want to.

I went prego and with a 1 yr old. I had a blast!!! Except for no big roller coasters, it didn't slow me down very much at all. Drink plenty of water, rest when you need it and I'm sure you'll have a blast too!
