Flying?

I'm so excited to have something to post on this board, but at the same time my stomach is in knots with the excitement/nervousness

Okay, we're 3 months away from TTC so that puts us in January. We are planning on going to Germany in May/June. And I'm concerned about flying. How far into your pregancy are you 'allowed' to fly ???

As a side note, I can't even tell you how much I have learned from all the women on here. Thank you to all the mommies and mommies-to-be. (People wonder how I know so much too )

Congratulations to Anna and Michelle on there latest news!!

Re: Flying?

from what I remember I was allowed to fly until I was 36 weeks... you shouldnt have any problems unless your doc says NO. If you do fly remember to drink LOTS OF WATER and move around a lot to keep your circulation up... Germany is an 8 hour flight.

Re: Flying?

I would make sure you take out trip insurance too. I have all sorts of compressed nerve problems and flying in Coach for 8 hours would be no less than torture. We are flying to CA next week, in first class though plus with a transfer. I need to be able to get out of the plan for a bit.
So you never know what will happen.
