[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. My niece did something similar and end up with a blood clot. The baby almost died. You shouldn't be sitting that long.[/quote] I'm sorry about your nieces situation, but.....flying for 8 hours is less likely to leave you with problems than taking a car trip. In a plane you can get up and walk as often as you need to; every 30 minutes if you want. Anyway, I'll be the outlier and say I don't think it's a big deal. If you by freak chance deliver that early, you will be in a country with much cheaper health care costs than here. And I would imagine that in London you could get the same level care as in the US. And by 33 weeks, you have a pretty robust preemie on your hands. Much worse would be delivering a 24-30 week preemie in a foreign country, as that's an area of care that the US tends to specialize in. But honestly the chances of delivering then are so, so low. You could also ask your Dr.[/quote]
