Flying in early pregnancy?

[dawn78]

hi i am 7 weeks at the moment and i am due to go to cyprus for 2 wks in just under 3 wks and was wondering about if allowed to fly as been told that it will cause miscarriage and bleeding, and that was from my doctor he even told me not to go and to cancel my hols, has anyone had experience of this?

i thought you could fly in early pregnancy id check with your air line about there rules and speak to a midwife x

i have just come back from ten days in Turkey, I was 6weeks and 5days when we flew there and almost 8when we come back, I am fine up to now.

I had a tiny bit of spotting when we where there but I hear that's normal for early pregnancy anyway.

I wore a pair of those sexy flight socks for the flight to prevent DVT

OH, and my midwife said i would be fine to fly

i went into thomas cook where i booked my hols and i told them how far i was and they said that is fine, not to worry and just told me to ring insurance to let them know that i am pregnant but they said they have lots of women travelling at this stage, they did say higher risk of miscarriage but they wont stop or suggest i not fly they told me not to worry so that has reasured me

As my dates have not been confirmed yet, I am currently either nearly 6 or nearly 9 weeks pregnant. I need a datin scan!

I would have been 3-4 or 7-8 weeks gone.x
