Have to fly for my cousins wedding next month and im around 5 months then. Thoda tension hai whether flying is safe at this stage. Will check with my gynac too but wanted to hear from others who flew.
I traveled by air in my second trimester and it was quite smooth. Just make sure to get up and stretch your legs every hour to keep the blood circulation going.
I totally understand how stressful it feels to make these decisions. If you need to travel to see family, just get your doctor's clearance and go safely. Take care of yourself and your sweet little baby.
Actually, you can fly easily until 36 weeks, yaar! Just get a fit-to-fly certificate from your gynac because airlines always ask for it. Keep yourself hydrated during the flight.
Beta, if it is very urgent then only fly, otherwise avoid long journeys. If you must go, drink plenty of water, don't lift heavy bags, and carry home-made ginger water to avoid any dizziness.
Because of my IVF journey, I was too scared to travel and avoided flights completely. But if your doctor says your pregnancy is low-risk and gives you permission, it is medically safe.
Yes, you can travel, but honestly the first trimester morning sickness made me feel so miserable that I couldn't even think of flying. If you feel up to it, make sure to carry motion sickness bags and ginger candies.
