A babymoon is a period of time that parents spend bonding with a recently-born baby.We decided to go on a mini babymoon with Sam. Why mini? Well, it's only to Kuantan for 3 days. And it's also considered David's mini golf holiday.
More recently the term has come to be used to describe a vacation taken by a couple that is expecting a baby in order to allow the couple to enjoy a final trip together before the many sleepless nights that usually accompany a newborn baby. Babymoons usually take place at a resort that offers appropriate services like prenatal massage.
Babymoon can also be used for a trip taken by a couple even before they get pregnant. As long as the trip is intended to be a final romantic fling before venturing into parenthood, the term babymoon applies.
The term babymoon comes from the more traditional term honeymoon, which is a vacation taken by a newlywed couple after their wedding ceremony- wikipedia
The real babymoon will take place sometime in October where we will go to Bali for about a week with 3 other families. Of course, golf was the main reason the trip was planned. Hey, what's a holiday without a few rounds of golf while the missus heads for the spa.
I would be around 34 weeks by then and really hope that I would be able to enjoy the vacation despite being fat, heavy, tired and everything uncomfortable you can think of.
Sorry to digress, back to Kuantan. The drive to the Hyatt Regency took only about 2 1/2 hours and we managed to check-in before noon. The weather was lovely and promised a weekend of sun, sea and snooze by the pool.
We were lucky to get a room overlooking the pool and of course, the gorgeous sea view.
Despite looking and feeling like a whale, I managed to squeeze into my bikini and enjoy some pool time with David and Sam.
The boys spent a chunk of our time there playing in the pool.....
...and enjoying a few rounds of golf...
...while I gazed up sleepily from the lounge chair by the pool
