Babymoon Bliss: A Cozy Escape for Two

A babymoon is the perfect Valentine's getaway to celebrate love before the baby arrives. Since February is winter for much of the U.S., choosing a comfortable, weather-friendly destination is key.

Winter-Friendly Destination Ideas:

• Mountain Lodge Retreat: Enjoy a snowy, scenic escape in a cozy cabin with prenatal spa treatments and warm indoor pools.

• Luxury Hotel Staycation: No need to travel far—book a nearby boutique hotel with fireplaces, pregnancy-safe room service, and a relaxing vibe.

• Warm Weather Getaway: If you're lucky enough to live in or travel to Florida, California, or Arizona, opt for a beachside resort with comfortable lounging and soothing ocean air. This year, you may have to go further south for the sunshine.
