Flying during early pregnancy

Hi all. Wondering what your thoughts and experiences are on flying in the first trimester?

I am 5 weeks pregnant and have a number of trips already booked. One is for work in 2 weeks, just a short flight of over 1/2 hr. Then I'm off to Prague in 4 weeks time, and 4 weeks after that we have a holiday in Portugal booked.

Having had a peek on the internet my feeling is that it seems safe enough as non are long haul and therefore less serious risks of DVT. But I'd really like to go home and see my mum to break the news, which would involve another short flight!

What do you think?

I don't think there would be any issues. It's 3rd trimester they tend to be picky about. I flew to Tobago when I was 21 weeks and just ensured I bought some awful looking flight pop-socks (talk about tight ) which I used on the plane. I have to confess we were spoilt though as we did go upper class

If you're concerned, chat to your MW but I'm sure you'll be fine. Hope you have fun flying around

The homesickness won in the end and I decided that going home to my mother was the most important thing for my sanity in the end! Flight's less than 50 minutes, so I guess it's not an issue really.
Thanks!
