Flying during second trimester -
So I haven't talked to the doc yet, but from your experience is flying during the second trimester a yay or nay?
DH is receiving a 5 day vacation to Aruba in April (I'll be somewhere around 24w).....free - all inclusive. It would be a great "babymoon" since it wont cost us a thing but I am petrified of being so far away from my doctor.
What do you guys think? I'd really hate to pass up the opportunity.

Re: Flying during second trimester -
My Dh and I went to California when I was about 23 weeksin Sept. We had planned to go for our anniversary in Nov, but I would have been too far along. The only thing that happened to me was that my legs and ankles swelled from the plane ride. Try to get up and walk around if you can and enjoy yourself.

Re: Flying during second trimester -
I say go. Have a good time! If you are worried about it, ask your doctor. If there are no complications in your pregnancy I dont see why you shouldnt go

Re: Flying during second trimester -
I went on a cruise during my second tri and flew to NY for Thanksgiving during my third tri. My doctor said it was fine. It seems like a great opportunity for a vacation.

Re: Flying during second trimester -
You can go @ 24 weeks. We are going away when I will be 25 weeks to Miami and a cruise. I need a doctors note for the cruise though.
Aruba is really nice! You shou;ld definitely take advantage of that trip especially if it is free!

Re: Flying during second trimester -
My OB said I can fly until 32 weeks. I travel all of the time for work and will be flying consecutive weeks until I'm 27 weeks. Then I have four more round trips over the next 5 weeks.
Go away at 24 weeks and enjoy yourself!!! My babymoon is when I'm 26 weeks.

Same with me. Doctor said as long as I still feel up to it, up to 34 weeks is good with him.
