[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I flew to Hawaii at 6 months pregnant. The flight was terrible. I have a good comparison because I had been to Hawaii twice prior to the pregnancy and also to Australia. I had no blood pressure issues or any other complications and I swelled up big time on the plane. It was incredibly uncomfortable but more practically, to the extent that you can build in extra time, build it in at the beginning of the trip, so you aren't all swollen and jet lagged at the wedding.[/quote]
Sorry to hear about your experience - but at least everything was OK with your baby (I assume ;)

Don't want to scare OP (and we really don't know her situation - maybe she works as a flight attendant and flights half way around the world are nothing to her, maybe she has stamina and endurance of an Ironman competitor,) but as a person who lived in Hawaii for  many years  I view  the combination of being 6+months pregnant + flying from the East Coast + supershort stay in HI as a hmmm... trying to be delicate here... not a very good idea. And unfortunately I'm speaking from experience...

The title of the thread is extremely misleading (I wonder if it is an indication of OP's thinking or what) - sure there are many people who fly from CA to HI for just a couple of days but spending all this time flying and money for a plane trip from DC while being 6+ months pregnant for a quick turnaround just boggles my mind...

OP here, do you mind sharing what happened to you when you did this trip?[/quote]
