Pregnancy flight travel
Hello,
I am planning to travel by flight to my home state during 17th week of my pregnancy. It will be a 3 hr long journey. I have hypertension before pregnancy and i am currently under medication labetalol 200mg twice daily, ecosprin 150, dupahston, thyroxin 12.5 folinextgold, iron and calcium tablets. According to my NT NB scan my placenta is anterior low and amniotic fluid normal. I am at a risk of developing preclampsia during later stages of pregnancy.
Is it advisable for me to travel?
