Hiking With Baby
Hiking with Baby
Can you hike Machu Picchu pregnant or with a baby?
I have travel quite a bit but I have never been to Machu Picchu. My Mom has always wanted to go and I promised her that I would go with her. Right now I am 3 months pregnant, and I would like to go in the future. Is it possible with the cold nights and the rain. It is mostly camping along the trail, right?
The ELEVATION should be your main concern. it is near;ly 8000 ft above sea level. If you normally reside in Leadville, Colorado...ok...you are acclimated to that elevation. Otherwise you should NOT go. Going to very high elevation when you are pregnant is dangerous to the fetus. The oxygen supply to the placenta is decreased and this can lead to premature labor, or damage to the fetus. I worked in the highest elevation intensive care nursery in the United States for over 20 years, and we frequently had preemies born in our hospital to mothers who had travelled to our high elevation city from lower elevation. Many doctors in sea level cities just DO NOT KNOW the dangers of high elevation to pregnant women...but we saw the results frequently. Breathing at that ellevation will be difficult for you...and just think about your fetus or young baby!!!Don't do it.
