Babymoons run the gamut from total indulgence to mildly decadent. Find one to suit your taste and pocketbook and remember that a little pampering goes a long way. You can even create your own, whether in your own backyard or further a field. Combine some pregnancy safe spa treatments—if all else fails a mani/pedi will boost your spirit—with an inspiring landscape and fabulous, nurturing food. Wherever you go, prioritize romance, rest, and relaxation rather than zealous tourism. Here is a shortlist of our favorites from around the continent.
