The Return of What-If

DH is planning a trip for the two of us in beginning of May.

I should be excited, no? This is our first trip together where we do not have any other company. Also this would be our first trip outside the hubby's dictionary of a good vacation - visiting his family, where his mom has a grumpy cookathon, and DH has a gleed eatathon.

My problem? I could be pregnant by then. What if I am pregnant? Would I travel then?

The tickets are so expensive. Will he let me cancel them? If I do cancel, I am sure to leave him in a sour mood.

What?

It is a repeat for me. How many times do I have to go through this?

    Do you really need to cancel if you are pregnant then? Will your journey be strenuous?

    Fingers and toes crossed for you.

    I agree with 'book the trip', but I also understand the 'pregnant then' thought. We're going away in May. I am arranging a campervan for a little road trip. Will I be pregnant then? I best get one with a bathroom then, so I don't have to do midnight walks. And the thought of not being pregnant, in three months time just makes me feel sick. Let alone with a daily reminder of why I spent the extra to get a campervan with a bathroom.
    I understand, but book the trip.

    I guess this becomes the "do you put your life on hold for your not-yet-concieved baby" question. And, sadly, those are not answers us nearly as wise blogbuddies can give.

    Thinking wise thoughts for you..oh wiseguy!

    Ah, the ever raging personal debate. I can't tell you what would be best because I don't know. But everyone needs a vacation at some point, pregnant or not.

    Heck, I'm still making the debate myself about going away and I AM pregnant.lol

    Oh, and I promise if you become a pregnant nervous wreck, I'll be there to mop up any teary messes and pass tissues. :)

    Does it involve flying? Personally I would absolutely go regardless if no flying; if there is flying, I would still go but I know people who wouldn't. After 7 years, I am done with planning around theoretical pregnancies. I do need to plan around IVF cycles now, and that's plenty.

    Just book it and try to see if you can get travel insurance. This way, if you do get pregnant, get your doc to give you a no-fly letter and get your money back! Heck... even if you don't get any money back... you will be happy because you canceled for a good happy reason!

Season...

With very limited time and access to the netz, I just want to declare that Lady Season is here. She arrived last Wednesday, and I will someday in future speak of how due to SuperPed's preparedness a crisis was averted. I tend to have firework endings. Her with me, and my first chance of mothering is like a spray of cold water on my face. I am very sleep deprived. Apparently, wise birds said to me that I should sleep when the girl sleeps, but so far my body schedule and kid's schedule are haywire. I hope to be better adapted to this soon. It is tough for me to find net time as of now, and there are a couple of things I want to post online, since CBub's dates also passed by recently, but so far it does not seem to be happening. And I just want to say thanks. Even though I am craptastic at responding, I am reading off and on as I can manage.
