Hi everyone...

I need any advice you all could give. Here is the problem.
We booked our July trip right after coming back in November. We couldn't book the whole trip b/c we didn't have enough points within the 11 mo window. But all in all, we used up about half. In any case, I suddenly became pregnant and the baby is due the same day we are leaving..there goes that trip. Now, after we called (we haven't canceled just yet), they said we could bank those points, but they must be used by Feb 2003 (our "use" year). The problem is, I cannot fly until the end of the pregnancy (complications) and really do not want to take vacation with newborn. Even if we go in Nov., the baby will only be 4 months. Any solutions?? I hate to lose the points and we thought about selling them, but very unsure of that. What are your ideas??

Thanks so much!
BTW- Checked airfare for Orlando for Spring Break..just to be curious! I really need Mickey right now! :-)
 
Some alternatives...drive down, take a trip after child is born but before Feb. 2003 (we've taken ours as young as 7mos.), use points for stays closer to where you live (concierge collection, etc.), bank the time with Interval to trade into another timeshare closer to you or that can be used at a later date (after Feb. 2003), trade points with another DVC member, or rent your points.

BTW, I am looking to rent some points. If you decide to take that course, keep me in mind!;)

congrats and good luck on your pregnancy!
