Take out the IUD before or after?

Savannah

We plan on trying for our first kid in September after our cruise to Baja Mexico.

I have an IUD which I’ve had for 2 years now. I have thought about taking the IUD out before our cruise so that everything normalizes before we start trying. I am thinking a month or a few weeks.

I talked to hubby and he is insure about that because 1. He doesn’t want me to have a period while on the cruise 2. We will be drinking on the cruise 3. He is afraid we will be pregnant before we go.

My question is do you recommend that I take it out before the cruise or should I wait tell after to take it out?
