Procreation vacations: The new way to conceive

Trying to conceive? check in to a procreation vacation. Sea Moss Elixir and Reflexology for 'Wannabe' Dads; Fertility-Enhancing Pumpkin Soup and Aromatherapy for Would-Be Moms!

Pop singer Britney Spears and husband Kevin Federline reportedly conceived by guzzling fertility potions during an island vacation. Fortunately, fame is not a prerequisite for conception, and now couples who want to hear the pitter patter of little feet can enjoy a three-night Procreation Vacation with Caribbean baby-making concoctions on the romantic islands of St. John, U.S.V.I.; Vieques, Puerto Rico; and Grand Bahama Island, the Bahamas.

Designed to promote fertility for the hopeful couple, the three-night Procreation Vacation package, available at Martineau Bay Resort & Spa, the Westin Grand Bahama Island Our Lucaya Resort and the Westin St. John Resort & Villas, includes luxury suite accommodations as well as:

Unlimited glasses of sea moss elixir for the future dad. Made from a marine plant mixed with evaporated milk, sugar and spices, sea moss has long been the Caribbean's answer to Viagra!

Unlimited bowls of pumpkin soup for the would-be mom. De rigueur among island women for conceiving, pumpkins are rich in vitamin A and beta-carotene, which promote fertility, successful pregnancies and lacation.

One 50-minute couples massage with aromatherapy, and aid in regulating women's fertility cycles, and reflexology, known for boosting virility.

One in-suite dinner for two.

One romantic dinner for two at resort fine dining restaurant.

" The idea was born when housekeepers at The Westin St. John were extolling the fertility benefits of pumpkin soup," says Bill Thompson, area director of sales and marketing, Caribbean and Southeast, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. "We're simply enhancing the baby-making process by offering island remedies that have been passed down for generations."
