Hola dear Camino friends!
I am planning to do the Camino Primitivo the first two weeks in August. I will be 25 weeks pregnant starting, am quite fit and enjoying a healthy and carefree pregnancy so far thankfully. I have done many Caminos before and am still hiking regularly and feel great.
I am just wondering about the suitability of the Camino Primitivo...I believe it is quite rocky and can be muddy. What are people's experiences of hiking this route - would I be in much danger of falling? I am known as the mountain goat by my hiking friends but obviously my centre of gravity will be a little off! I am also concerned about being left bedless - I have no problem booking ahead in the privately owned albergues, but are these to be found along this way (I know they won't be in the same abundance as on the Francés route).
Any thoughts or experience would be greatly appreciated, but no judgement please!
Sue
