We have a family function in another city and im in my 7th month now. Its like a 6 hour journey and im thoda worried if its okay or not. Will ask my gynac also but wanted to hear from you mommies who travelled.
Actually, standard guidelines on my pregnancy app say 2nd trimester is safest for travel, and by 7th month (3rd trimester) you should restrict long travels. If you must go, carry your medical files and keep a list of nearby hospitals in the destination.
Suno, please don't take any risk without your doctor's written permission. I had minor cervix issue in 7th month and was put on complete rest. Travel can trigger early labor or complications, so gynac se consult karke hi jana.
I totally understand wanting to travel or go for a babymoon before the baby arrives, but it can also cause a lot of anxiety if you are far from your doctor. If you do go, make sure you travel comfortably and keep your gynac's number on speed dial to stay calm.
As a rule of thumb, check your amniotic fluid levels and placenta position with your gynac before planning any travel in the 7th month. Avoid bumpy road travels and long flights. If she gives a green light, keep taking frequent breaks to stretch.
Maine abhi 2 months pehle hi deliver kiya hai, and mere doc ne 7th month mein long travel block kar diya tha. Short car rides are okay but long journey makes your feet swell badly. Honestly, ghar pe rest karo, it's safer.
Wow, travel in 7th month! I am also planning pregnancy and keep wondering about this. Can you travel by air or only road trip? Do update what your doc advises!
I know u might be feeling tired and wanting a small break, dear. But 7th month is a very delicate phase of pregnancy. Please keep your safety first, consult your doctor, and if possible, plan a relaxed staycation nearby instead of a long journey.
