Do FET before holiday?

Hi ladies - in September I had my ER and we have x8 frozen 3 day embryos (clinic advised day 3 rather than day 5 so we are going with their recommendation). I wanted to take a break before transfer because I found the process physically and mentally exhausting and intensely emotional.

Originally I was aiming for FET in March giving me 6 months to rest, recover and live my life. However, now I wonder if I should go for FET in Jan?

The complication is that we have booked our delayed honeymoon (originally meant to be 2020!) at the end of Jan and then we have a friends wedding in mid Feb abroad.
Should I still push for a FET in Jan or Feb knowing I have these travel plans? Or will waiting until March not make much difference? I wonder if I’m just panicking and being emotional.
For reference I am 34, turn 35 mid next year. Thanks all 🙏

Depends how you feel deep down. I had my first FET on 22/11/12 and booked a holiday for a few days after. I mainly wanted it to relax and pass the 2ww, which it certainly helped with. I also found out how relaxing a holiday is when not touching a mouthful of alcohol and lazing around in the sun. Unfortunately, the embaby didn't stick.
