Newbie!

Hi Everyone,

 Finally got my account verified! I'm a newbie and right now just playing around on the site. My husband and I will be married for 2 years in August and we can't wait to start a family.

Right now I'm trying to figure out when that will be and was hoping people would be able to help! We have a trip planned overseas at the end of December... but I don't want to want to wait until next year to TTC! What would be the max week I'd want to be in at the time of the trip?

 Thanks!

Welcome and GL!

I felt crappy until week 19, so I'm not help.  But I think most people would be feeling good and ready to travel during the 2nd trimester.  Less morning sickness, less tiredness than the 1st tri, but you aren't too big to get comfortable on a long flight.  It will really depend on your pregnancy though!

Welcome! Once I got into my 3rd trimester I really didn't feel like traveling. I was just uncomfortable all the time. Also it will depend on how well your pregnancy progresses, and if you develop any complications that your doctor would want to keep you monitored for.

Hi and welcome!

With my first pregnancy, I felt great and the whole pregnancy could not have been more perfect.  In that case, if I remember correctly, my OB allowed me to travel(long distances) up to 32 weeks.  After that she requested that I stay relatively close.

With this pregnancy, I am tired all the time.  I could see myself traveling oversees right now (Im 18 1/2 weeks) however I honestly dont see myself feeling like traveling oversees once I get to my 3rd trimester.

 As others have mentioned, you really have to see how you feel overall and the recommendations of your doctor.  Every pregnancy is soooo different.
