Hello
I'm new, this is my first post so please excuse if I'm doing it wrong...

TTC baby number one
I've been TTC for a few months now, and I've got a holiday booked to the Maldives leaving next week for 2 weeks away. This is a huge holiday for us as we live in the U.K and for us it's a pretty expensive treat... so we have planned it to be a little baby making holiday. My fertile window is smack bang in the middle of the holiday! I was over the moon! Been taking folic acid and doing everything I can to help/be as healthy as possibly to conceive.
All going great. Until now, when I've read that the Zika virus had been reported last year in the Maldives in 3 people. So that's now worrying me, as if you get the virus most of the time you wouldn't even know it and then for a male it can stay in semen for 6 months!!! So no TTC for 6 months... really I'm just looking for any advise or anyone who has been to the Maldives pregnant/TTC. From what I can see the chances are pretty slim of these things happening... Zika reports have gone very quiet this year everywhere, and between us we've probably only been bitten a handful of times in our lives so not very prone to mosquito bites. However I just don't know very much about the whole situation...
