The new trend of taking a Babymoon -- a trip before the baby comes and life is turned upside down -- can be a great way to connect with your partner and relax.  Here are some items you may want to pack for a tropical getaway.
 
A maternity bikini (yes I said bikini)!  There is no reason to cover that gorgeous bump.  Plus, when else can you wear a bikini and not have to worry about sucking in your stomach.  You can choose a classic black or white bikini, or go for something bright and colorful that says look at me.  If you just can't stomach the idea of a bikini, try a maternity tankini, which will give you more of a modern look than the standard pregnancy one pieces.  A cover up, such as a sarong or tunic, will offer coverage after a swim.  Don't forget the sunscreen!
 
For a day of sightseeing, pack a pair of shorts or capris and a cool tank top.  Pregnancy can make you feel warmer than usual, so dressing in layers is a good idea.  You may also want to go ahead and use your diaper bag to carry your camera, a lightweight cardigan, water and other essentials.  Nowadays, diaper bags are so fashionable, you can use them before and after baby.
 
For dinner, nothing is better than a dress.  Forget basic black and have some fun here.  A knee length dress in a fun fabric or bright color is perfect for a vacation.  Throw on some sandals and accessories and you're ready to go.
 
Looking for a little romance on your getaway?  Pack some sexy maternity lingerie.  Pregnancy is beautiful and chances are your partner loves the way your body looks now.  Maternity lingerie will enhance your growing belly and show off your best assets.  Look for sets made in silk for a wonderful feel against your skin.
 
Relax, have fun, and connect with your partner.  Soon your little one will be here and this may be the last time you get away for awhile.  Enjoy yourself!
