Conceptionmoons: Get away to get pregnant

Many find it tough to get pregnant even after the doctor states that they are absolutely normal, fit and fine. One probable reason for this may be stress.



What are conception moons?

A conceptionmoon is a honeymoon that you and your spouse take just to get pregnant. A conceptionmoon is mostly planned around the woman’s ovulation dates and maybe for a week to 10 days. The most favorite places seem to be beach resorts, hill stations and overseas.

Conceptionmoon Tips

If you are planning for a conception moon, follow these tips to make your trip a great success:

i) Don't take your children along with you, if possible. Try to leave them with your parents preferably.

ii) Take all that you need like basal body temperature chart, tests, medicines, folic acid tablets, etc. along with you.

iii) Don't pack sight seeing and other strenuous activities into your itinerary.

iv) Leave all office work and stress behind.

v) Don't take your laptops, blackberry, etc. on the trip.

vi) Don't check your emails

vii) If you can't bear to leave behind your mobile phone, then at least put in on a silent mode and keep it out of sight.

The main thing you need to do is relax. Have good wholesome meals, sleep well and have fun together. Hold hands, have a candlelight dinner, a walk through the woods and fall in love with each other once again.

What if you can't go on a conceptionmoon?

A conceptionmoon is planned with the idea of reducing stress. If for any reason, you cannot get away, then try to do all you can to reduce the stress at home.

Try the tips listed below:

i) Do some exercise everyday, preferably together with your partner.

ii) Join together for some yoga or meditation session.

iii) Get beautiful aromatic candles for your bedroom.

iv) Beautiful mood lightings can also have a soothing effect for you.

v) Go for a dinner date-just the two of you! Leave the kids with a babysitter or your parents.

vi) If a weekend creeps into your ovulation date, then take the Friday off too and spend all 3 days off office work and housework too. Watch movies together, go out, have fun and enjoy each others company.
