Just 7 weeks and we have a family wedding out of state, flight is around 2.5 hrs. My mom is scared to let me fly this early saying its risky in first trimester. Did anyone here travel by air in early weeks, was it ok?
It depends on ur pregnancy honestly. If there is any bleeding or u had issues before, please ask ur doctor before booking. For a normal healthy pregnancy short flights are usually okay but the doctor knows ur case best.
For me i was extra cautious in the early weeks and avoided travel, but mine was a different situation. For a regular pregnancy flying is generally allowed. Just please run it by ur doctor first, every journey is unique na.
I traveled a lot in first trimester for work. The main annoying part was nausea on the flight, so carry some lemon candy or whatever helps u. Move ur legs during the flight. But yeah clear it with ur doc once for peace of mind.
I was so nervous about flying early on too. My doctor said it was perfectly fine for me and that reassured me a lot. So instead of worrying, just call ur gynac and let them give u the green signal, then travel relaxed.
Yes flying in early pregnancy is generally fine if u have no complications. I flew at 8 weeks for work and it was no issue. Just stay hydrated, walk a little, and wear ur seatbelt low under the belly. Still, get a quick okay from ur gynac first.
