We have a family wedding in Kolkata next month and im 22 weeks now. My MIL keeps saying flying is risky for the baby but i really dont want to miss it. Anyone travelled by flight in second trimester? pls share how it was for u.
Generally the second trimester is the most comfortable to fly. But it really depends on your pregnancy, so the safest answer is to ask your own doctor before booking. She knows if there are any risks for you.
If you do fly, carry a fit to fly note and your scan reports na. Some airlines ask for it after a certain week. Also take travel insurance, just practical to be covered.
I flew for work till about my 7th month with my gynac's okay. Keep moving your legs, stay hydrated and carry your reports. Most airlines have rules near the due date, so check that too.
