hello everyone, i'm supposed to travel to langkawi next week which would be my week 8 and my gynae advised not to travel during 1st trimester. she said you can travel anytime during 2nd trimester when it's more stabilized, so i decided to heed her advice..there's cancellation costs but i feel it's better to do this than to go ahead and travel...
Same here. I travel in week 7 too.everything was normal. No bleeding and then everything g is fine. Until I reach mel. I started to bleed and I went to the hospital. I was tested faintly pregnant. N then it was gone. I came bk n see gynae. Gynae say is chemical pregnancy. So I din know if it is due to my flying or not too. So now I m pregnant for 10 wks n I stop all activities until everything is smoothJus to share.. I travelled during my first tri previously but that was for work purpose.. that time I was in my week 6.. so when I returned and visited my gynae on the 8th week, we realised the preg din form and I did a d&c. Till now I'm still not sure was it becos I flew at that time.. so jus to be safe and have no regrets better not travel ba
H and I booked a trip in Dec before we knew.. So now we are not sure if I can fly? Anyone travelled in first trimester? Any advice pls?
Hi, just a qn, what if it's just traveling to msia by coach? Abt 6-7 hours road trip. Would it be safe?
my colleague did not went travelling but just went cny visiting and got too tired... and the baby got miscarried after that.
Mine was a pre-booked since Jul and I have no choice as I don't want to disappoint my family.
Super regret as it is a family trip to visit relatives in China.
Very taxing on the body as I have to wake up at 4am to catch the plane then upon arrival, we were being whisked off to this Island with sooooooo much walking with the slope and stairs.
Throughout the trip, there was so much walking involved, mountainous area with no sitting area.
To make matter worse, China food is so saltish and greasy with plenty of animal fats. Basically is just soak in oil. Thinking of this make me feel so nausea again.
The pregnancy is quite smooth sailing at first however upon return to SG, I have very cramps, bad chills, nausea and headache.
I have to take a full week mc and till now, full blast MS, on and off cramps with brown discharge.
Super regret it and given a choice again, no way am I going to travel again during my pregnancy.
Thanks dear, I have been living overseas for years and thought I can jolly well survive anywhere but this trip was really ......... nothing can prepare me for the greasy and meaty food for 3 meals daily and seeing live slaughter of the livestocks on the street.Sorry to hear about your bad experience, but I think it's not traveling anywhere overseas in general, but traveling to China, a country you're not used to and the taxing itinerary that got you so exhausted. I had a very good time traveling overseas in my pregnancy - went to Australia, South Africa, Korea and Norway. All are developed countries and hubby made sure the itineraries were such that it was comfortable for me, not too tiring, and allowed plenty of rest in between. I particularly enjoyed eating foods overseas that are not found here to help my LO put on weight. Hence my advice to pregnant MTBs is to choose wisely where you should go overseas, and make sure you can cope with the itinerary - limit how much you will do (walk, travel, stand etc.) in a day.
Super regret it.yes. china is no joke!!
I will advise u not to go because *touchwood* if anything happen, u will sure regret it especially u still have slight spotting.@chloebun in the End, did u go? I also booked a trip to Bangkok Before I know I was preg, should be week 8 by then. Still have slight spotting on and off, should I go? My two sisters will be going without me if I ain't going and that makes me worry

I think fr 7 week onwards into 2nd tri, we will feel v v v extreme fatigue. for me, I almost lay in bed whole day except for meal time.. I dont even hv the energy to shower or sit up to watch tv for 15min. just feel so so so tired that I need to lay down anywhere... like if outside I just feel I wan to find a bed to lie down but I cant...no bed. so try to find ya kun and get a seat but the body feel so uncomfortable as sitting upright is also v challenging for me... during wkends I just lay in my bed whole day, so I decide not to travel when intially I wanted to...
