We talked about it for months, but I wouldn't book it because I held out hope that I would NOT be able to go. So, darn the luck...I "get" to go after all. Wish we didn't have to count days all the time!<br /><br /><br />Happy ICLW (#141)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13326022901875387072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073547614166371090.post-59576705600379663402010-03-23T19:58:20.991-05:002010-03-23T19:58:20.991-05:00Planning the trip might jinx yourself into pregnan...Planning the trip might jinx yourself into pregnancy, but I hear what you mean.

It's so hard! and has induced a lot of gnashing of teeth already. I think we've decided to go - even if it means we have to skip an IVF cycle opportunity that month. I'm trying to work on myself to make sure I won't be tempted to look back in regret while on vacation about missing an opportunity. In the end, though, I think we just need the break and it will be good (and hey, at this point, what's another month? It's been such a long haul so far.) Wishing you peace with whatever decision you guys make!HopeBPatienthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05594281959818334437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073547614166371090.post-10929769654708734222010-03-23T15:41:32.978-05:002010-03-23T15:41:32.978-05:00GO!!

I wanted to get my MS but put it off each year thinking that I would be pregnant and then have a baby/toddler/little one and wouldn't be able to finish. Low and behold, I could have completed it with a whole year left over! Sad, but I've come to learn that you just can't plan one way or another.<br /><br />If you do get pregnant, it will be your babymoon!<br /><br />Best of luck!<br />ICLWchristinahttp://subfertilefrugalista.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073547614166371090.post-42499105068413397682010-03-23T14:32:23.008-05:002010-03-23T14:32:23.008-05:00Definitely plan the trip!!!!!

The more I try to "deal" with infertility, the more I realize that I can't put stuff off just because of the "what ifs" and that enjoying this moment is really important.<br /><br />I think you'll probably be happy that you decided to go. I'm so jealous that you've been to all those places! :)jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645802594940433840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073547614166371090.post-49855658610914633682010-03-23T11:38:11.469-05:002010-03-23T11:38:11.469-05:00Plan the vacation!

Get refundable tickets and rooms of course. Also, pick up the extra trip/travel insurance when you book. Look through the fine print to see if they exclude pregnancy conditions. Lots of times they just exclude preexisting conditions, so booking now when you aren't pregnant, means if you are pregnant and complicated, you get more of your money back.

E and I already have our tickets to Europe this Sept. :)<br />Refundable, of course.<br />Even if you are only in your 2nd, and you decide you don't feel up to going, I am sure you can talk the OB into writing you a note to get out of plane tickets or whatever.<br /><br />If saving money for treatments is the issue, I say don't go. Plan a cheap package trip to Mexico or something instead. Because you guys go to Europe practically every year anyways... and it will still be there after your fertility treatments!<br /><br />My 2 cents!!!Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12445064184402702224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073547614166371090.post-813546960751619572010-03-22T14:34:28.257-05:002010-03-22T14:34:28.257-05:00It is so hard to plan anything with TTC.

We'll just book it at the last minute too, because we deserve it. <br /><br />I think you're doing the right thing making everything non refundable and planning on going. I hope you're in the 2nd trimester by then and safe to go :-)ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09150067629614839175noreply@blogger.com
