would you go on a long plane flight 8 months pregnant?

Question

i don’t wanna end up like claire on the show Lost but i wanna go on a baby moon! lol

Answer

Many airlines and doctors wont let you. Personally, I'd not go that far.

Answer

After 35 weeks I wouldn’t go far from home.

Answer

Only if you are prepared to possibly have a baby mid air or far from home.  Doesn't mean it will for sure happen but it could. I stay home bound when I get to the 7th month mark. I don't ever want to be far from home when expecting. My mind always goes to what if I do go into preterm labor and I'm far from home and there are complications?? What if baby and / or I have to stay longer then expected? Just something to think about. . .

Answer

I flew from England to Ireland to New York to California at 31 weeks pregnant and let me tel you it was fucking hell

Answer

Hell no lol. That sounds beyond miserable. I delivered early too and had episodes of contractions before my actual labor for like 2 weeks.

Answer

Most airlines won’t let you fly after a certain point. Some require a doctors note after 28 weeks. There’s reasons other than going into labor as to why you shouldn’t, such as risk of clotting in your legs (DVT) which is a serious urgent matter.

Answer

You’d have to get cleared by your doctor to fly. Then check the airline regulations. Sounds like a bunch of hoops just to be uncomfortable anyway.
