5. How safe is it to travel to distant lands during pregnancy?

Exotic travel slightly differs from short distance trips. If you are expecting a baby and planning on going to an exotic location, prepare for the event very well. Inform your doctor that you are leaving and ask for professional advice regarding food and drinks you should consume once you reach your destination. In less developed countries the quality of tap water can be of lower quality. We recommend you should buy and drink only bottled water. Be careful with foods, too. Do not eat too spicy dishes or local products you have never heard of. It’s fun to taste local cuisines, but some exotic fruits can cause allergy. Finally, remember to purchase travel and medical insurances before you leave your country.
