Travelling is not inherently harmful in pregnancy including the last month, although make sure to drink enough water and make regular stops to get out of the car and get out of the car to stretch out and thus helping reduce risks of blood clots and dehydration. Please travel only if there are no complications or if it is a high risk pregnancy.
