Has anyone ever canceled their vacation because of pregnancy?
Hi ladies
An hour ago I canceled my flight for tomorrow morning. I booked my vacation a month before I got pregnant and was really excited about it but when I found out I was pregnant I started having second thoughts. After I discussed it with my gynecologist and she gave me the green light to fly I was a little excited again but not as much as before.
However as the flight came closer I started getting lots of anxiety and no longer wanted to go. I'm used to traveling by myself and it has never been a problem for me but for some reason this time I had very strong feelings of not wanting to go. I blame my pregnancy hormones and my terrible all day sickness. I can only keep one meal down. My mom got extremely mad at me for canceling my flight which upset me even more. She said she doesn't understand where I'm coming from and that my morning sickness is all just in my head. I told her that it wasn't an easy decision for me because I did want to go but I just didn't feel safe and comfortable traveling by myself when I feel so light headed and throw up so much. It was a long distance flight. From Frankfurt to London. Then a six hour lay over in London and then finally a 10 hour flight to Los Angeles. All that seemed to be too much for me and I hate that I'm still so sick at almost 17 weeks. I do feel regret now and I've already cried because of the canceled flight but I think deep down it was the right decision. Does anyone know how I can make up with my mom or what I can do to make her understand?
