[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally traveled several times at 12-20 weeks, including at least a couple of flights across the county. If I recall correctly, my doctor gave me the first two trimesters to travel, then told me to stay close to home during the third trimester. I've known people who had earlier restrictions, but only if they were high risk for some specific reason. Does you mom have any specific concerns? What exactly is she worried about? Do you have any high risk factors?[/quote] She said the air pressure from the airplane is not good for pregnancy. [/quote] She's wrong. Airplanes are pressurized to the equivalent air pressure that you'd find at 8,000 ft elevation. People live at those elevations and have healthy pregnancies all the time. -- Pilot[/quote]
