I would think a tent with flexi poles would be best. However, I have the Bear Lake 6 and I worry about us pitching for our holiday in July as I will be nearly 6 months pregnant! Thank goodness I have hunky hubby who can take most of the weight.

Forgot to add that the Hartford XL seems a bit big for a pregnant women to put up. What makes it so different.

 The fact that it says "8 person BIRTH tent"!

I resisted the urge to ask if you'd be camping in it or wearing it pwatson!!

Glad to hear it. We've got one and we're going for a week in the summer when I'll be 7 months pregnant!

Its certainly big enough to fit tons of baby paraphenalia in!

 Used to have a Hartford XL when my now 4 year old was a baby.  It was great as we could put the travel cot in it. Sewn in ground sheet also great as toddlers cannot try to excape under the edges.

Tip from my Mum:- Make sure you can stand up in it...............

She hired a boat with Dad when she was 8 months pregnant with me, it did not have standing headroom. By the time 2 weeks was up she was in agony from not being able to stand up straight..................
