When will the ship stop rocking?!

[jaybertx]

Ok, I'm really confused. We just got back from our 4 day on the Fascination and I had read that people still "felt" the rocking from the ship for up to a week after the cruise had ended. It was pretty calm, I could count on one hand the number of times that I could actually feel the ship rocking during the trip.

 

I've been sitting on my sofa rocking for about 2 hours now. Is there anything I can do to make the rocking go away quicker?

The seas were so calm on our last cruise that I actually miss that "leftover" feeling.

I missed the rocking after it went away.

 

I took soccrguy's advice and booked another one to get the feeling back!!!!

AMEN!!! Book another cruise quick!!! It makes the rocking go away and the wishing start all over.

It took me about 4 days for it to stop. My DD thought I was nuts, until it happened to her after our CTN. :eek:

It actually took me a good 2 weeks to really get over the feeling of unsteadiness. For the first 2 days back from a cruise, I am soo bad that I can hardly get out of bed! Funny thing is-that I don't get sea-sick and that I enjoy the rough rocking on the ship! Go Figure?!

Happy Cruising,

I know exactly how you feel...the same thing happened to me. Took about a week to get over, but oh so worth it!;) Check with your personal physican if you don't start feeling better. For me, I took dramamine and a decongestant which really helped.:) Feel better soon!
