Some places in Cambodia still carry a significant risk of malaria, so it may mean having your baby on anti-malarials. Dengue is a risk throughout most of SE Asia these days, so it is a difficult one to avoid. Malaysia and Thailand have excellent medical facilities available, and most of peninsular Malaysia doesn't have malaria. You should check some of the travel health sites such as fitfortravel. Indonesia is so diverse that it is variable, but places like Bali are low risk.

Malaysia, Thailand and some of Indonesia would all make a good trip. You could probably combine some of Malaysia and Thailand together if you did want to move around. April can be quite hot in Thailand, as it is just before the monsoon hits (which tends to bring dengue, so your timing is probably quite good).

Hi,

Travelling to SE Asia will pose a risk for any mosquito born illness.

Currently here in Perth many people are returning from Bali (our most popular holiday destination) with Dengue fever and Legionnaires Disease. I am not trying to scare you off but point out there is a risk at even the destinations you consider low risk.

Ensure to take baby insect repellent should be available in your supermarket or chemist. Cover up in the evenings and avoid tropical rain forest areas.

Personally I really like Malaysia due to the food, don't seem to get that sick - who wants to be sick and care for a baby?

Have a look at a great Australian website http://www.smartraveller.gov.au

Happy travels

Sorry, was meant to say Bali was considered low risk for malaria. Too much dengue around these days....

I travelled Thailand with a 9 month old. Phuket international hospital has a good reputation so I made sure I was not more than a couple of hours from here. Perhaps Khao Lak would suit you, great diving for your husband at the Similian Islands and a nice beach for you.
