I love Vegas! It is the perfect vacation destination, no matter your situation. It was fun for me as a child, long before I was legal to party. I thoroughly enjoyed it in my 20’s, when I could fully participate in Sin City shenanigans. If you’ve read my blog then you know how I feel about making any destination kid-friendly, and therefore absolutely love doing Vegas with kids, and Vegas with my young baby. And yes, I even loved Vegas when I was pregnant! I was pregnant in Las Vegas (twice) and it was fabulous.
So you going to Vegas while pregnant? Well, there is no shortage of fun things to in Vegas pregnant. From getting prenatal massages and lounging poolside to shopping and shows, here is my list for the ultimate babymoon in Vegas.
Is it safe to visit Vegas while pregnant?
The short answer is YES, IT’S SAFE. Let’s just get this out of the way. A lot of people ask this question, but I personally think it is a silly question with a simple answer. Of course it is safe to spend a few days or a week of your pregnancy in Vegas.
Most Vegas casinos do still allow smoking on the floor, BUT there are also non-smoking areas if you are really concerned about this for the limited time you will actually be spending in the casino while pregnant.
Especially for the larger hotels on the Vegas Strip, these hotels have air filtration systems that do a pretty good job of keeping the air safe to breathe for kids, adults, and pregnant women. While there is room for improvement, most of us are exposed to air pollutants constantly anyways, especially in big cities, so it is not something I personally worry about for a few days in Vegas.
Honestly, you just have to use good judgment and common sense to have a safe visit to Las Vegas. Get adequate sleep and rest (you know your body). Eat well. Stay hydrated. etc.

I will show you some useful tips on how to have a fabulous time pregnant in Vegas.
What to do in Vegas while pregnant?
There are very few activities you will actually be restricted from doing when visiting Las Vegas pregnant, so the whole city is basically at your fingertips…but there are some fun things to do in Vegas pregnant that are perfect, or in some cases even specially tailored, for expecting mothers. If you are pregnant and visiting Vegas with kids, there are plenty of budget-friendly and age appropriate activities as well.
In fact, the lack of your ability to drink and gamble all night will actually force you to enjoy some of the other great attractions in Vegas such as spas, pools, shopping and shows, which can actually be a delightful and refreshing new experience of Vegas.
Prenatal Massage Las Vegas
When we go to Las Vegas, we always stay at a big hotel on the Vegas Strip and rarely venture far from the strip (except that one time we drove several stressful miles searching for a grocery store for baby formula!). Here are some hotels to consider on the Vegas Strip with special prenatal pregnancy massages for expecting mothers.
Serenity Spa at The Westgate Las Vegas
3000 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
Expecting Mother Massage
This 50-minute prenatal massage at Westgate is for expectant mothers at least 12 weeks into pregnancy. It includes a complete full body massage addressing discomfort areas and fatigue common in pregnancy - helping reduce stress levels and painful symptoms such as soreness and swelling.
Bellagio Spa
3600 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
This 50 or 80 minute massage is similar to the pregnancy massage offered at Mirage (both MGM properties), but the Bellagio Spa is slightly more exquisite and lavish overall.
Four Seasons Spa
3960 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89119
The Four Seasons is connected to the Mandalay Bay hotel, and is notable for its Forbes Five-Star rated Spa, which has a special Las Vegas babymoon massage for expecting mothers in the second or third trimester. If luxury and splendor are important to you, the Four Seasons Spa should be your first choice.
Poolside in Las Vegas While Pregnant
Relaxing by the pool is a Las Vegas Maternity itinerary. One of the best things to do in Las Vegas when pregnant is float. Most big hotels on the Vegas strip have at least a decent pool, but there are a few that really step it up a notch and stand out for the amazing resort-style pool experience for enjoying your Las Vegas babymoon. Here are my favorite Vegas pools for families and expecting mothers.
Mandalay Beach at the Mandalay Bay
3950 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89119
The Mandalay Beach Pool is just as the name implies – it is a beach with real sand! This pool sits on a huge 11 acres at the center of Mandalay Bay properties, and is full of palm trees, fountains and waterfalls. My favorite feature is the 3 mph lazy river that circles the enormous pool area. It is one of the most relaxing ways to enjoy Las Vegas pregnant.
Garden of the Gods at Caesar’s Palace
3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
The pool at Caesar’s Palace is not my favorite because it is not tropical, but it is very popular and quite beautiful. There are eight different pools set within classic Roman architecture, columns, and sculptures. You can also swim up and play blackjack or grab a cocktail, which is a really nice touch.
The Venetian Pool at Venetian
3355 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
The Venetian is a large rectangular pool with a contemporary design with chic-furnished cabanas, a poolside restaurant, Riva, which is run by Wolfgang Puck. You can even get a poolside massage at the Canyon Ranch SpaClub. Guests at Venezia Tower also have access to the exclusive Venetian Garden-style pool. This is a great environment to be in Las Vegas while pregnant.
New York New York Pool
3790 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
This pool at New York New York is pretty simple, but it does have a little water fountain in the middle of the pools, which gives it a touch of excitement. Since it is small and manageable, it the perfect little pool with you are pregnant in Las Vegas. Bathrooms are conveniently located and everything is close, so not too much walking around when you are feeling heavy and swollen.
See a Show in Vegas While Pregnant

There are so many great shows to choose from in Vegas, but we always tend to gravitate toward Cirque Du Soleil shows with intense acrobatics, interesting storytelling, and heart-pounding music and theatrics. It seems that every major hotel on the strip has its own Cirque-style show, and for good reason. These shows are spectacular and super popular, and will give you hours of interesting conversation afterwards.

There are lots of places to shop in Vegas pregnant, but here we will focus on my favorite hotels on the Vegas strip with major shopping areas.
Shops at Crystals
3720 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89158
The Shops at Crystals is a glamorous collection of the finest luxury brands in the world, located in the CityCenter Complex next to Aria. It is definitely an upscale shopping mall with beautiful features throughout, art galleries, gourmet restaurants, and designer retailers. It is a vibe.
Le Boulevard at Paris
3655 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
I love, love, love the French style of the cobblestone streets and boutique shops at Le Boulevard in Paris. There are plenty of great places to eat including places to grab a quick crepe or delightful French treat. This would be my first choice for the romantic atmosphere alone.
Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace
3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
The sky is always blue and the weather perfect as you stroll through the Italian streets of the Forum Shops in Caesar’s.

The Shoppes at Mandalay Place
3950 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89119
The Mandalay Bay property is huge, and it stands to reason that they would have a huge shopping area. I am pretty sure you can shop for literally anything at the shoppes at Mandalay Place and it is conveniently located right off the casino floor. There are also lots of cool restaurants and bars, like the Minus5 Ice Lounge where they supply you with a warm jacket and you imbibe from frozen glasses in a room basically made of ice cubes!
Grand Canal Shops at Venetian
3355 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
They key word here is canal. The Grand Canal Shops has a gorgeous canal that winds through the entire sprawling shopping area. You can even take a romantic Gondola ride on the canal.
