How to Create the Perfect Staycation While Pregnant!

If you’ve ever been inclined to try a staycation before, pregnancy is the perfect excuse to finally give it a try! The thought of battling airport security lines or navigating unfamiliar streets with a growing belly can be far from appealing and substituting for a staycation doesn't have to mean sacrificing relaxation or creating lasting memories. 

Here's your guide to crafting the perfect staycation:

Transform Your Space

Declutter your living area and bedroom. Surround yourself with calming colors and textures. Invest in some cozy throw pillows and blankets for ultimate lounging comfort. Light some scented candles (pregnancy-safe options, of course) and diffuse essential oils like lavender or chamomile for a spa-like atmosphere.

Indulge in Comforts

Stock up on all your favorite snacks and refreshing drinks as you would on any vacation. Put on your fluffy robe and slippers, and cover yourself in blankets and pillows.

To add some extra excitement, you could even order a Rumbly box to surprise yourself with, but don’t open it until the day of your staycation! That’s the rule. 

Embrace Technology

Download some relaxing music playlists or audiobooks. Explore prenatal yoga or meditation apps for moments of calm reflection. Take advantage of streaming services to binge-watch your favorite shows or discover new movies.

Spa Day at Home

Once you open your Rumbly box, the pampering experience really begins. Treat yourself to a luxurious spa experience in the comfort of your own home. Draw a warm bath infused with calming Epsom salts and essential oils. Massage your tired muscles with pregnancy-safe lotions or oils (coconut oil is a great option). Give yourself a facial using gentle, natural products. Pamper your nails with a DIY at-home manicure or pedicure. Don't forget to put on a relaxing face mask or cucumber slices for an extra touch of rejuvenation.

Culinary Delights Delivered

Give yourself a break from cooking! Maybe try a new restaurant or cafe near you like you would if you were on vacation somewhere you’ve never been. This allows you to focus on relaxation and indulge in delicious food without the hassle of preparation or cleanup.

Capture the Bump

Document this special time in your pregnancy journey. Take some beautiful maternity photos at home, either by setting up a self-timer or asking your partner to capture the glow. Remember this time you created the perfect staycation for yourself, while awaiting your little one.

 So what do you think?

I hope it's amazing - whatever you end up doing :)

Sending hugs,
