I am 14 weeks on Friday and I Will be flying on this day. Doctor and midwife says it's fine I've also checked with the airline and they don't require a medical letter at this stage

I already talked to my doctor at my appointment last week and she said I was fine to travel. But Im just worried Ill be getting sick the whole time because I already get motion sickness and usually have to take dramamine.

I travelled to Portugal at around 16 weeks and was fine. I only suffered a little with nausea which you can get wristbands to help with and drink plenty of fluids to help.

I was about 14 weeks pregnant and my hubby and I flew to Italy. I was very tired that was the only real issue. We now have a healthy baby girl so the trip didn't hurt her at all. :) Be sure to check with your doctor however!

I think it is around 7-8 months that you have to stop. I think you will be fine. Just stand up every hour. If you're concerned, talk to your dr.
