Is it safe to fly in 7 months pregnancy?
Patient: I am 7 weeks pregnant and we booked a trip to Aruba before we got the great news. Is it advisable to fly? We don t want to lose out on this trip but we are worried because this is our miracle baby and don t want to jeopardize anything. Your thoughts please Doctor: Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion air journey is safer than road and railways.You can go on with the journey if the pregnancy is normal without any complications like anaemia ,any spotting etc.Consider getting an ultrasound to know the well being of pregnancy before the journey.If everything is normal you can fly.Dont compromise the diet during the journey.Take adequate fluids upto 2-3 litres per day to prevent urinary infections.Best regards....
