This is the Pursuit of Wellness podcast and I'm your host Mari Llewellyn. Hi guys, welcome back to a solo episode with me. I have lots to talk about with you today, kind of random, kind of all over the map. Things I'm experiencing, things I'm feeling, upcoming plans. I just had Fi on the show for a girl chat, which was so much fun. Listen out for that. It was really fun. We talked about her dating life, her journey with Ozempic, A medical situation she had that was so crazy and all women should know about. But really great to catch up with her. I am heading off to Europe this Friday, which is so exciting. It's kind of our baby moon, which I never expected to be going to Europe pregnant. I think I always in my head thought that it like wasn't allowed.
I don't know. I think just from everything I went through, I was like, I probably wouldn't want to travel that far. But I'm feeling a lot better and more confident. And after talking to my doula and my doctor, I just feel good about it. So we're going to the south of France and then to the Cotswolds, which is where I spent a lot of my childhood to see my granny. And we're staying at some really gorgeous places. And I just can't wait for the food and to spend time with Greg and just sort of like... enjoy before we have a baby. It's so crazy. That'll be our last like big, big trip. And then we leave for Colorado for a whole month. So very exciting stuff. I'm definitely prepping for a big travel day. So the flight is overnight.
I think it's like nine hours, um, landing in London Heathrow and then transferring over to niece so I'm definitely prepping a lot a lot of snacks I've heard traveling pregnant you want to have a lot of snacks even our flight to New York which is the only flight I've done pregnant I had cheese, crackers, like I, and you just, I need to eat like every couple hours, if not more frequently. So I definitely want to bring a lot of snacks. If anyone has advice of what to bring, let me know. I think like rice cakes, cheese sticks. I want to bring something with protein if I can. Greg always travels with a lunchbox because he's like, you know, Greg's Greg. So I'll bring some snacks. I'll definitely bring my Kindle.
I'm very into reading. I'm reading the Queen of Shadows series. I think that's what people call it. Definitely will download some films. I'm hoping I can sleep. I'll definitely be bringing my Unisim, my prenatals and all my supplements and things like that. And yeah, I'm just, you know, I might delete social for a little bit while I'm there. I feel like, oh, remember when I deleted social for two months? That was the craziest thing ever. What an experiment. I feel like I might do that again for a little bit of the trip, just to have some really present downtime. I want to eat really good food. I want to lay in the sun, vibe out. South of France is like my favorite place. And I just feel really lucky and grateful that we're going.
I actually am such a Gemini, guys. I always, always, always change my mind and change my plans. And that's just like how I've always been. And I decided last minute I wanted to leave a day earlier. And Greg agreed with me because I realized we only had two full days in Saint-Tropez. And I was like, that's not enough. Because you really lose like two days getting to Europe, at least from Texas. So... leaving Friday instead of Saturday. And I'm excited. It's crazy. I feel like it's such a big trip. I'm lucky that I got to have an ultrasound before we left. I had it yesterday. And I think girls who have been through IVF or infertility or loss will relate to me in the like fear around appointments like I used to just be so terrified every time I was in the office and praying praying praying and just like really unable to even like speak because I was so nervous and I've now gotten to the point where the you know the thoughts are still there and I'm definitely like apprehensive but it's more of a exciting experience than anything and
It's like really fun to get to see him and how much he's grown and all the updates.
