Anyone taken a trip on a plane during pregnancy? Hubby is taking me to
Puerto Rico for my bday in July & I’ll be 29 weeks. I spoke with my dr about traveling on my first visit and she said it was fine as long as I get up and walk during the flight. I also ordered some compression socks so will bring those. Any other tips?
Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. I flew when I was 37 weeks. It was fine.
Oh yes good idea! 37 weeks? Did u need a drs note? I’m worried they will give me a hard time and like how do I prove how far along I am lol
@anaperez71987 I didn't need a note. But I flew pretty regularly during my entire pregnancy. I was also pretty small so I'm sure they didn't think I was as far a long as I was.
@massgirl, got it. I have anxiety that they won’t let me on my flight back home lol
That’s pretty much it. I flew from CA to Philadelphia about 30 weeks pregnant. I got up and walked. Used compression socks also.
@amouryaya09, omg I didn’t even think of that lol. I might not fit in the bathroom by then 😂...that’s a good idea too
@anaperez71987, that’s the only sucky part for me! 🤣 trying to wipe with a belly is already a chore!
I flew at 36 weeks and no one questioned me at all. Compression socks, drink lots of water, and get up and move around. 👍🏼
