Travel Info Is it safe to fly during 16wek pregnancy? Travel Tips At 16weeks you should be ok but if you are worried I would say speak to your doctor. They can also advise you of any precautions or simple do's and dont's, for the flight and when your abroad, that you may not have thought of. I have added a link that has some good advice. Good luck with the baby and have a great holiday x Source(s): http://www.bounty.com/travel/pregnant.as... Other Travel Tips I don't see a reason why not. from about 13 weeks to about 26 weeks they're usually OK with it. Earlier, the bairn is too fragile. Later, you might give birth in mid air. Beware of bugs picked up in planes or wherever you're flying to. Sit near the front if you can - the air is cleaner. On an aeroplane yes - if you're thinking of free fall parachute jumping, wing walking or gliders I would give it a miss for now :-) xxxxx Every woman's pregnancy is unique. I don't think a "blanket" answer will work for anyone, and that the ONLY correct answer should come from your Dr.! However, here is Continental's policy directly from their website: ==============================... Traveling while Pregnant - General Guidelines: Women in any stage of pregnancy are accepted for transportation on Continental. Continental policy requires a doctor's certificate within 7 days of anticipated delivery. This should be advised when the reservation is made. However, boarding will only be denied if physical signs of labor are present. Women beyond the seventh month of pregnancy should be advised to consult a physician prior to traveling. Regulations regarding the use of seat belts must be observed. =========================== Good luck and congratulations! http://www.continental.com/web/en-us/con... |
