Rhonda Lynn - 74 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I am planning a trip over the fouth of July weekend. I am flying from Ohio to Florida. My doctor said, when asked, have a good time. Like he said, you can't say with 100 % proof nothing can happen. But it is a safe time in the pregnancy to travel and he is ok with it. I will be at the end of 22 wks then....

He told me it was ok but make sure you get up every hour and walk around to get the blood flowing. Pregnant women tend to get blood clots if they sit too long. Have fun!
