"I spent the last seven days of 2023 in Antigua with my parents, my siblings, some extended family, and my son, Leo, who was 10 months old at the time. It was my first trip after becoming a mom, which made having the whole family in one place even more exciting. Instead of staying at a resort, we rented this huge three-story house with a view of the mountains."
"We sailed on a private catamaran to a secluded area of the island, where a chef cooked fish and veggies on a makeshift grill. After lunch we went swimming. The coral reefs were so orange, yellow, and blue. We even swam with stingrays. We went in the water almost every day, even Leo. He was so little that we all kept passing him around from person to person."
I spent the last seven days of 2023 in Antigua with my parents, siblings, extended family, and my son Leo, who was 10 months old. We rented a three-story house with mountain views and hired a local chef to prepare Antiguan breakfasts of plantains and saltfish. Massage therapists provided treatments on the outdoor balcony and instructors led yoga by the pool. My sister handled the schedule. We sailed on a private catamaran to a secluded spot where a chef grilled fish and vegetables, then swam among bright coral and stingrays. Family members took turns caring for Leo, and breastfeeding moments felt supportive and calming.
