Can expectant mothers fly at 35 weeks pregnant?

My answer is not to sit, and if you must travel far, I recommend other modes of transportation.

The following story is a vivid example.

Xiaoxi is a 35-week-pregnant-to-be mother, she and her husband are working in other places, it happens to be the National Day holiday, and the child in her belly is almost eight months old.

I wanted to take the train home safely, but the bullet train and high-speed rail tickets were not grabbed, so she and her husband bought plane tickets and prepared to fly home for two hours.

However, Konishi was really a little nervous about flying with a big bellyBecause when buying a ticket, the airline requires that pregnant women must be within 36 weeks, and they must bring a "diagnosis certificate" signed by the doctor.

Before getting on the plane, Xiaoxi chose to board the plane last, and deliberately chose the first row of economy class, so that it was more comfortable, after the plane took off, Xiaoxi felt a little tightness in his chest, and her husband hurriedly asked the flight attendant to bring a glass of water.

Konishi had just opened his mouth to take a sip of water, when suddenly the plane began to jolt, Konishi choked on a mouthful of water and immediately began to cough.

At this moment, Konishi felt a heat in his lower body, and felt a stream of liquid gushing out.

Not good! The water is broken!

Xiaoxi was nervous for a while, crying and saying to her husband, "What should I do? I seem to have broken water! ”

When my husband heard this, he immediately called the flight attendant and asked to get off the plane, saying that his wife was about to give birth, and if the plane did not stop, both mother and child would be in danger.

The flight attendant was also a little nervous, after all, there were few incidents of pregnant women going into labor on the plane, or the captain was calmer, and asked the flight attendant to broadcast on the plane first to see if there were medical personnel on the plane, who could help the pregnant woman deal with the emergency, and then the captain immediately began to contact the ground for follow-up matters.

Fortunately, there happened to be an obstetrician and gynecologist on the plane, and he immediately took the initiative to ask Ying to make an on-site diagnosis for Xiaoxi.

The doctor asked Xiaoxi to lie down and checked Xiaoxi's condition, and quietly said to Xiaoxi: "You are too nervous, you didn't break the water, you urinated just now." ”

When Xiaoxi heard this, her face turned red with shame, but she really couldn't tell if it was urine or the amniotic water broke, and she couldn't imagine that she was too nervous, and she actually urinated when she coughed.

The passengers on the plane also burst into laughter, but fortunately there was a false alarm, and the emergency was resolved.

Generally speaking, airlines do not allow pregnant women to fly after 36 weeks of pregnancy. Because when the plane flies into the air, the air pressure increases, which will cause pressure on the uterus of the pregnant woman, which is easy to cause water breakage and premature birth, so if the expectant mother is 36 weeks pregnant, she can raise the fetus at home with peace of mind, and do not plan to travel far.

There are regulations regarding the carriage of pregnant women, only pregnant women who meet the transportation regulations.

And this compliance is also required to be pregnant, otherwise you can only know about it when you go to the airport security check, because when we buy a ticket, we only need to fill in the origin and destination, and fill in the ID number to buy a ticket.

China's Civil Air Passenger and Baggage International Transport Regulations stipulate that healthy pregnant women who are less than eight months pregnant, that is, 32 weeks pregnant, can fly normally. Generally speaking, it is not a big problem to fly in the second trimester, and it is recommended not to fly in the first trimester and third trimester.

Of course, if there are signs of high blood pressure during pregnancy, or signs of heart disease or premature birth during pregnancy, doctors do not recommend flying. After all, at an altitude of 10,000 miles, it will take a certain amount of time for us to land, and it will be more difficult to deal with it if we feel unwell during pregnancy.

At the age of 14, a pregnant woman was born prematurely when she was on a plane, and a pair of twins were born on the plane, so in fact, if it is a twin pregnancy, you should also pay special attention.

If it is too far away, and the matter is urgent, you must go to the hospital to fill out the diagnosis certificate within three days before the flight, explain your situation to the doctor of the prenatal examination hospital, and if the doctor agrees to take the plane, a diagnosis certificate will be issued for the pregnancy. When you are pregnant, you will get the opportunity to take this medical certificate, and the airline will generally ask you to write a special passenger demand list, and you can only board the plane after writing it.

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to do airplanes during pregnancy, the fetus is not very stable in the early trimester, it is easy to miscarry by plane, and it is easy to be born prematurely by plane, the air is thin during the rise and fall of the plane, and the negative pressure makes people quite uncomfortable, and the immunity during pregnancy is not very good, and it is easier to have uncomfortable reactions. So at 35 weeks, normally, if the doctor prescribes that it can be done, then it can be done, but in fact, for the sake of safety, it is still recommended that pregnant women do not fly.

Pay attention to the parenting of Jing mother, and it is easy to raise children from now on.

When I was 20 weeks pregnant, I needed to fly, as a person who put safety first, I specially asked the airline, and got a definite reply, so I placed an order to book a ticket.

Precautions for pregnant women when taking an airplane:

1.Pregnant women who are less than 8 months pregnant (32 weeks) are considered to be ordinary passengers, unless they are diagnosed by a doctor as unfit to fly.

2.Pregnant women who are more than 8 months (32 weeks) but less than 35 weeks pregnant are required to provide a medical permit to fly, and it is valid within 7 days before the flight.

Pregnant women who are in good health can travel by air in the same way as other passengers. I am 20 weeks pregnant, I am considered a general passenger, no additional procedures are required, I boarded the plane smoothly and arrived safely.

However, if you are 35 weeks pregnant, you need to apply for a medical permit to fly, in order to prevent it, it is best to seek the advice of an obstetrician and gynecologist, conduct various examinations during pregnancy, and carry your physical examination report with you.

And I personally recommend not taking risks if you can. One is that there is ionizing radiation at high altitude and changes in air pressure, which may lead to the occurrence of premature birth. The second is because my second treasure was born at 35 weeks, there are no symptoms, and the amniotic fluid broke in advance for some reason, and I can only have an emergency caesarean section, and I still have palpitations.

In short, there is a real risk in taking a plane at 35 weeks of pregnancy, and if you don't have to do it, even if you are in good physical condition, it is not recommended to take a plane. Hope mine is helpful to you.

My advice is that it's best not to fly, and the doctor must think so. You are now 35 weeks pregnant, and if you are going to fly, the airline will ask your attending doctor to issue a medical certificate for you to prove that your physical fitness will not be dangerous to fly, and you will be allowed to board.

But presumably most doctors are not willing to take this risk, it is best not to have an accident, in case there is an accident, this is not something that he can bear with a piece of paper.

If you don't have anything urgent, it is recommended that you choose to take other means of transportation and be responsible for you, your baby and your family. By your gestational age, you are not yet full-term, so if an accident happens on the plane, there will be no emergency measures at that time.

If you really want to fly, you can wait until 37 weeks, when your baby is full-term, so that even if there are any surprises, your baby will not be born prematurely.

I met a pregnant woman during my previous prenatal checkup, and she was estimated to be eight to nine months pregnant, and she went to the hospital to get a certificate from the doctor that she could fly out to play. And guess what happened? The doctor not only did not give her a certificate, but reprimanded her, thinking that she was too bold.

Think about it, you have endured more than eight months of torment for the baby, so in the last month, I must hope that you can focus on safety, and try not to go out if you have nothing to do, and I hope you and your baby can be safe and healthy. While there is nothing we can do to prevent accidents from happening, we can choose ways to reduce the risk factor.

You have to know that when the plane takes off and descends, you can bear the pressure on your uterus, but not necessarily the baby can withstand it. If you are taking the high-speed train, train or long-distance bus, no one will stop you, after all, you are running on the road, even if there is an accident, everyone can deal with it urgently.

But you are flying in the air, you can't get to the village, you can't get off the store, are you willing to take the risk of a plane landing and a premature baby?

Theoretically, it is possible to fly at 35 weeks, but a medical certificate issued by a doctor within seven days of the woman's flight is required. There is a doctor to ensure that the airline will allow pregnant women to fly.

However, personal advice is still not to sit. Because 35 weeks is already in the late stages of pregnancy, the air pressure during the ascent of the aircraft and the turbulence during flight in the air may cause discomfort to the pregnant woman, and may also cause hypoxia to the fetus, and in severe cases, it will cause premature birth.

Therefore, it is recommended that you think about it before making a decision. You can choose to take trains, high-speed rail, bullet trains, etc., which are relatively stable means of transportation.

The factors that affect the flight of pregnant women are low air pressure, low oxygen, and small space in the cabin. Although studies have proven that it is safe for women to travel at any stage of pregnancy, it is generally prudent to stipulate that healthy pregnant women up to 8 months of pregnancy can fly, except that proof of expected delivery is checked at the time of ticket purchase. Pregnant women who are more than 8 months pregnant should not take the flight under normal circumstances, and in case of special circumstances, they should submit the "Diagnosis Certificate" signed by the doctor and stamped by the medical unit within 72 hours before the flight, including the passenger's name, age, date of pregnancy, expected date of delivery, travel itinerary and date, suitable for boarding and special care on board, etc., and fill in the "Application Form for Special Passengers" in duplicate, and can purchase tickets for boarding with the consent of the carrier.

It is generally recommended not to fly during the first trimester and the second trimester of pregnancy, as the second trimester may affect the birth time of the BB due to turbulence and air pressure problems. So at 35 weeks pregnant, don't do airplanes.

Airline Regulations:

1: Within 32 weeks of pregnancy, you can fly without a bad arrest certificate. When you go through the formalities, tell the staff that you are a few weeks pregnant and hungry. The airport doctor will give you a simple examination and stamp.

2.If you are 32-36 weeks pregnant, you need a doctor at or above the municipal level to issue a certificate of fitness for boarding 72 hours before boarding. You can't fly without proof.

3.If you are pregnant beyond 36 weeks, airlines are not allowed to fly in principle.

For health and safety reasons:

In general, pregnant women are allowed to fly in the early stages of pregnancy. However, after 28 weeks of pregnancy, it is better for pregnant women not to fly. Because when the plane is at high altitude, there will be a certain pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cabin.

For pregnant women who are more than 28 weeks pregnant, due to the large amount of amniotic fluid in the uterus at this time, the uterine tension is high, and the pressure difference is easy to cause premature birth, and even severe placental abruption, which endangers the lives of adults and children. In addition, there are no professional doctors on the Feiheng closed plane, and the medical equipment is far inferior to that of regular hospitals. In the event of premature birth on an airplane, it is difficult for pregnant women and babies to receive professional care and other accidents are prone to occur.

So, you need to avoid overwork as you can fly. Pay attention to regular pregnancy tests.

Pregnant women can fly. However, there are certain precautions to be taken when taking a plane during pregnancy, as follows: 1. Taking a plane in the first trimester is easy to aggravate pregnancy reactions and cause miscarriage, so try to avoid taking a plane in the early stages of pregnancy;

2. In the second trimester of pregnancy, the fetus is relatively stable, the placental nuclear paramodel has been formed, if the placenta is well developed, the fetus is not abnormal, and the stable period of pregnancy can take a delayed plane, but there is no clear combination of Qizheng syndrome does not mean that it is very safe to take a plane. Generally do not take the plane for more than 4 hours, and always wear a seat belt on the plane, because there may be accidents during a long flight, and sitting in a position for a long time will put a lot of pressure on the waist of pregnant women;

3. Taking a plane in the third trimester of pregnancy is not allowed by various airlines, most airlines allow pregnant women to take a plane for a number of weeks before 32 weeks, and pregnant women should try to avoid taking a plane after 32 weeks, so as to avoid premature water breakage or placental abruption caused by huge impact.

Pregnant women in the second trimester (13-32 weeks) are relatively stable and in good spirits. At this stage, pregnancy vomiting has passed, and there is a risk of miscarriage. When pregnant women are in good health, they can travel by air just like other passengers.

If you want to travel far away during pregnancy, flying is the fastest and most convenient way. Pregnant women can fly, but most obstetricians and gynaecologists do not approve of flying in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy, because these periods are very sensitive to changes in the external environment.

The first trimester (the first 3 months of pregnancy) is the most serious period of early pregnancy reaction, prone to nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc., and this period is also a critical period for the formation of fetal organs.

In the third trimester (3 months after pregnancy), this period may cause serious complications such as uterine contractions, premature birth, and early placental abruption.

If a pregnant woman has threatened miscarriage in the first trimester of pregnancy, or has hypertension, proteinuria, edema, diabetes, etc., in the third trimester, it is not suitable to fly.

Many pregnant women are afraid to fly due to various problems, and often have the following doubts.

1. Will the X-ray of the security check affect the fetus?

Generally speaking, security gates and hand-held instruments detect metal by inducing currents, which are basically harmless to pregnant women, while baggage detectors are special X-ray machines, as long as they are not too close, they generally do not affect pregnant women.

2. Will flying for pregnant women affect the fetus?

Many pregnant women worry that the lack of oxygen on the plane will affect the health of the fetus. In fact, as long as the pregnant woman meets the requirements for flying, although the cabin pressure changes during takeoff and landing, and the oxygen concentration and air humidity during high-altitude flight are lower than on land, as long as the pregnant woman is in good health under normal circumstances, it can only be regulated by deep breathing to provide enough oxygen to the fetus.

3. When is it safer to fly during pregnancy?

In general, the first trimester of pregnancy and the last trimester of pregnancy are not suitable for flying. However, the condition of pregnant women in the second trimester (13-32 weeks) is relatively stable. At this stage, most pregnant women have disappeared from pregnancy vomiting symptoms, and the risk of miscarriage and preterm birth is relatively reduced.

Therefore, it is believed that this time is more suitable for flying, but also the advice of a doctor is needed.
