Trying to Get Pregnant

Off-shoot of the QOTD (question inside)

Kita's question of the day got me thinking about traveling and all of your photos got me thinking back to all of the places I have visited!

QUESTION: So tell me, where are all of the places you have traveled either domestically or internationally?

1st BFP- March 2011. Natural MC @ 8 weeks
2nd BFP- July 2011.  Chemical Pregnancy
3rd BFP- Sep 2011. My beautiful son was born May 2012.
4th BFP-August 2014- Due May 12, 2015


Re: Off-shoot of the QOTD (question inside)

  • I'm so boring... I've been just about EVERYWHERE in the US, Canada and Caribbean but I've never been overseas.  I'm dying to see Europe and Asia!

  • Wow - you guys have listed some amazing places!!

    In the US - lived in MO and IL. Been to TX, FL, OH, and MD 

    Internationally - Mexico (just border towns by TX) and I lived in Jamaica for a semester in the Blue Mountains in Kingston. It was very third world and very un-vacation, but I absolutely loved it. The people were amazing.

  • Canada: Quebec (born and raised), Ontario, BC

    USA:  Maryland (living there now), Vermont, NH, NY, NJ, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Indiana, Virginia, West Virginia, Florida, North Carolina, California, Oregon, Washington. And Washington DC. Also a few drive-through states I'm not counting because I didn't stay there.

    International: London, Paris, Amsterdam, Florence, Rome, Berlin, Vienna, Munich, Prague, Berne, Vatican city.

    It sounds like a lot but it was a whirlwind backpack tour of Europe and I only got a day or two in each city. It was awesome, though, and I'll never forget it.

    BFP #1 9/7/12. Loved for a month, and lost 10/11/12.

  • I've been all over the midwest US, but that isn't horribly exciting.  My one big trip was when I was 21 and my family went to Ireland.  We did a 10 day bus tour of the country.  On the last day we hired a driver to take us to the house my great grandma grew up in.  We still have family living there and the original house is still on the property.  It was amazing.

  • Fun question! We have some well-travelled people around here!

    I've been to Europe a few times - I studied abroad in Madrid and Edinburgh, and did a Mediterranean trip to Italy, Greece, Turkey with my family. DH and I honeymooned in Hawaii and a Caribbean cruise for our anniversary. Trying to get lots of travel in before babies! 

    I highly recommend Rome, Cinque Terre (Italy), and Hawaii as great romantic destinations.
