We are in our trying phase and theres a family function out of town next week, almost 8 hrs by car. Just wondering if long travel like this is fine when ur trying to conceive or should we avoid it? thoda worried.
We are also trying and we travel for work often, I had the same worry. From what I read it doesnt affect conceiving at all. Just take care of yourself, eat well and rest enough.
If you're only trying, long travel is fine. But if you have any condition like PCOS or past miscarriage, mention your travel and plans to your doctor. Once pregnant, long journeys in first trimester especially need a little caution.
While just trying to conceive, travel doesnt really stop anything, no harm in long journeys. I traveled a lot during my trying months. It's only after you actually conceive that you take more care with long bumpy rides.
Babe while just conceiving, travel as much as you want, dont stress too much about it. Stress actually affects conceiving more than a long car ride does. Enjoy your trips!
During trying-to-conceive phase travel freely, it doesnt affect conception. Once you get a positive, then plan long trips carefully, take breaks, walk a bit, stay hydrated. But TTC stage, live normal life.
