I agree with NewbE. Garyt22's comment was out of line.

You probably already know this but some airline's do require doctor's letters when you're close to your due date. A friend of mine was almost denied boarding until her doctor faxed a letter at the last minute.

I agree the heat factor is important. Pregnancy made me really hate the hot weather. What about Martha's Vineyard?

Thanks, MichelleY. Honestly, the howls of protest tell you all you need to know about those two.

Why is it I suspect you know all about heat and humidity given where you live? I also thought of St. Augustine and although I also agree with the possibility of San Diego (where we all know it is never humid being right on the ocean and all) I think the Oregon or even the Vineyard idea might work.

Costs down? that might somewhat depend on the flight markets out of DFW.

I prefer the west coast beaches in Florida. Anna Maria/Bradenton Beach area is really lovely. Billowy waves, beautiful color water, lots of sea shells and always a breeze.

I am going to the St. Augustine Beach this August, but that is because I am also visiting relatives there.

Love Florida - in the winter. No humidity or bugs then to speak of.

But it is a beautiful drive along the West Coast - and the Gulf side ain't too shabby at all - and liked driving down the Keys.

Still - here in San Diego - many more options than anywhere in Florida - except around Miami.

Oops - got that backwards. The Atlantic is on the East side - and Gulf on the West. Drove both - at least part way down on the Atlantic side to Venice (from Orlando and then Tampa/St Pete) - on the gulf side - all the way south to Miami on the Atlantic side - the highlight of my drive from the Orlando area - east - aand then from Cape Caneverval/Kennedy south was stopping at the Dodger Spring Training camp in Vero Beach.

Have wanted to do that since I followed the Dodgers back in the early 50's.

Also loved going through Palm Beach, etc.

And while I grew up in Oregon - and love the rugged Oregon coast - and am part Polar Bear - not many other people venture into the water from say - north of Carmel/Monterrey in California.

Just doesn't warm up - but you can hang on the beach.

Actually Cape Cod is a great idea. Have you been before? Cooler and less humid than the Florida beaches but lots to see and do that is non-beach.
