2nd Trimester

Cruise Ship Conception

I'd like to know if anyone else went on a cruise and came back with a baby in the belly?  Did you know that this is an old wives tale-If you want to get pregnant, go on a cruise!  Just curious if anyone else got an extra special souvenir from their last trip.  We joke about making the baby's middle name "Voyager" -the name of the ship.

  • We tried our hardest. ?It was our honeymoon and I was ovulating, but I ended up with the Norovirus instead! ?We had to wait and extra month:(

  • We certainly tried that! It didn't work for us, however, a trip to Japan did the trick! My Ob/gyn told me that its VERY common to get preggs when on vacation, and she said a TON of babies are concieved this way because not only do you have more sex, you aren't stressed out and your body can "do it's thing" Smile
  • Funny you should say that.  We got a New Year's/Cruise surprise as well also upon a ship named the Voyager.  We kidded about nicknaming baby Voyager.  It must be a fertile boat Stick out tongue

    The way it will end makes this a happy story....  We were ttc and got pregnant my first cycle of clomid on a cruise.  Unfortunately it ended in an early miscarriage.  We had another of the same but I'm currently more than 16 weeks and doing great!!  We actually still sometimes call the baby the little nickname we had developed based on our cruise conception "wegi" because it was a Norwegian Cruise:)

  • YUP! Hence the title of our blog. We got married on the Ruby Princess and came home with a baby! LOL
  • We having a cruise ship baby!  And our best friends had a cruise ship baby....
  • We hoped to get preg on our cruise, but it ended up being the next week!
  • YES!!  My DH is an officer for Royal Caribbean, so I was sailing with him in South America for 8 weeks - love all the cruise ship baby stories! Would be a great marketing idea!!!

  • Not me.... I blame the blizzard that kept us locked indoors for a few days last January.

    Id almost bet it has more to do with being on vacation then it does being on a cruise. Dh and I go at it like rabbits whenever we are on vacation
