Flying??

Yes my SIL just took a 3 hour flight at 30 weeks. As long as your doctor clears you you are good.

Flying??

I got home from St. Maarten last night - I'm 25 weeks and flew 4 other times for work in December. My only complaint is that my back hurts today from sitting in the seat - I just couldn't get comfortable. Totally okay to fly - I'd just recommend doing best to get aisle seat and make sure you get help with any bags you are carrying!

My doctor actually said she'd okay me to fly through 32 weeks, I'm just tired or traveling for work (this last trip was pleasure) so I told my job I'm done :). As long as your doctor says it's okay, go for it!

I flew to Florida at 19w. I got up once to move my legs but otherwise it was fine.

Yes, assuming you're flying soon, but you should clear it with your doctor no matter what.

Every airline has a different policy about how late in your pregnancy you can fly. I had to fly out of the country for work around 21 weeks pregnant and I carried a letter from my OB stating that I was in good health and what my due date was. Never had to use it, but it was a good precaution.

I went to Mexico at 18 weeks and the airline asked me for a letter. I didn't have one so they just had me sign a form saying how many months I am and that they're not responsible for anything.
