Making plans???

MrsT007MrsT007
in Trouble TTC

So my DH and I are trying to plan a June get away. We are thinking a cruise, but haven't officially decided yet. Since we are starting treatments back up in April, would I be crazy to book a June cruise? I know I could still go if by some miracle we got our BFP, but it might not be a good idea to. But since we plan on doing 2-3 more months of IUI before moving on to IVF, that would give us a break in between. I just don't know how I feel about it.

Thoughts?

    Go.

    If the IUI is succesful, it will be a great way to celebrate!  If not, it will be something to look forward to,and give you an opportunity to take an emotional break from everything.

    Agreed. For me I have to live my life and enjoy my life not worry about the maybes when making plans. I didn't think I'd get to be going on the trip I am going on this weekend bc I thought I'd be too pregnant but nope not pregnant at all. But I am very glad to be going on the trip.

    I dont understand why it wouldn't be a good idea to go if you were pregnant...

    I think the only issue would be if the dates interfered with monitoring appointments and therefore you would need to skip the cycle.  If you are okay with that, then go! :)

    THIS.  We booked a trip last year to Reno and ended up flying away the day after what would have been my beta, but AF showed up a day earlier.  It was a great way to get away from IF and the heartache.  And as PP said - if you get a BFP, great way to celebrate.

    I agree with all the PP, go! Keep living your life, you can't put everything on hold just in case. And even if you do get pregnant, there's no harm in traveling.

    Thanks all! I feel better about it! I guess I shouldn't be nervous anyways. After tyring so hard, sometimes you lose step of reality and reality is my life doesn't stop because of IF.

    THANKS!!!
