We are trying since few months and i have a long train journey planned next week which falls around my fertile days. My mom is saying avoid travel if you want to conceive. Is there any truth to this or am i overthinking?
There's no real link between normal travelling and not being able to conceive. If anything a relaxed break helps. If you have any specific medical condition though, just run it by your doctor before long trips.
Travelling doesnt stop you from conceiving, that's a myth. I actually got pregnant during a holiday trip. So no, normal travel during your fertile days is totally fine, dont overthink it.
I was worried about the same thing when we were trying. Our doctor said relaxed travel can even help because stress goes down. Just avoid super tiring or rough journeys, otherwise its okay.
My family also had these old beliefs about not travelling while trying, but my gynac said its fine. I conceived right after a temple trip actually. Just stay comfortable and hydrated when you travel, that matters more.
