Traveling With A Baby

Prior to baby, I loved getting off the beaten track and seeing places most people don’t have the energy, time, or courage to check out. Even though our intention was to keep this trip pretty low key, we ended up staying near friends in a remote part of the island that was a long way from the hospitals and services of cities like Kingston and Montego Bay. 

Both my husband and I had low-level anxiety about what we would do if something went wrong — not a great complement to a beach vacation. In the end, it all worked out, but if I was offering advice to a friend, I’d suggest staying on the beaten path for that first visit or two.
