不同于蜜月和出差 孕期旅行小贴士

Between babymoons and business trips, more and more women are traveling during their pregnancies.

 除了喜月旅行和日常出差，越来越多女性开始在孕期旅行。
At least that’s the anecdotal evidence that Jan Rydfors, an obstetrician-gynecologist and a co-founder of the app Pregnancy Companion, has gathered from his patients. Not the most scientific survey, he would be the first to admit, but nevertheless telling. “I’ve done this over 20 years,” Dr. Rydfors said, “and I do think women feel much more that being pregnant is a healthy state.” He added, “They tend to listen more to their bodies than to dogma, so there’s much more traveling.” (To be done, of course, under the guidance of your doctor.)
至少，这是产科妇科医生让·莱德弗斯(Jan Rydfors)通过对自己病人的观察得出的经验之谈。他是应用程序孕期伴侣(Pregnancy Companion)的联合创办人。他坦承这不是最科学的调查，却是显而易见的现象。“我干这一行20多年了，”莱德弗斯说，“我的确认为女人越来越觉得怀孕是一种健康状态。”他补充说，“她们更愿意倾听自己身体的声音，而不是教条，所以越来越多孕妇开始旅行（当然，要在医生的指导下进行）。”
Recently Dr. Rydfors gave travel tips for pregnant women, some of which came in handy during trips he took with his expectant wife before the birth of their first daughter. Following are edited excerpts of the conversation.


前不久，莱德弗斯给孕妇们提供了一些旅行贴士。当年他和初次怀孕的妻子一起旅行时，其中一些秘诀就发挥了作用。下面的对话经过剪辑和浓缩。
Q. Any precautions women should take before their trips?
问：开始旅行前，孕妇要做哪些准备？
A. Something I recommend to all of my patients: Get a copy of your prenatal chart and a letter from your O.B. clearing you for travel, with your due date. In case there are any medical problems, doctors would have an idea of how the pregnancy has been going. Your hotel or the American Embassy should have a list of doctors that are recommended, and most medical professionals anywhere understand basic English. I’d also recommend getting a flu shot because on a plane you’re around a lot more people, you’re touching a lot of surfaces, you’re more prone to get an infection. Keep in mind it takes two weeks for the flu shot to really start working.
答：我给所有病人提的一个建议是：带上你的产检表以及产科医生的旅行准许函，上面会有你的预产期。万一你的身体出现问题，医生们能从中得知你的怀孕状况。酒店或美国大使馆通常会提供推荐医师名单，不管在哪里，大多数医务人员都懂基础英语。我还建议你打一针流感疫苗，因为在飞机上，你周围有很多人，你会触摸很多东西，所以更易染上感冒。记住：流感疫苗打完两周后才能真正开始发挥作用。
