Probably flying, as long as there are no complications Since the pressure in the cabin is lower than at sea level, you should ask your OB/GYN if there is a problem. A bigger obstacle is that some airlines have restrictions, which vary, and can restrict boarding to those who are less than 28 weeks, or 32 weeks, or 36 weeks, or something. You should contact the airline to ask about those restrictions.

I don't know what airline you have picked, but if you are traveling in Europe or Africa, see the link below for a list of airlines and their policies, at the end of an article on travel while pregnant. Even if that is not the area you are traveling, it will give you an idea of the range of restrictions. Have a wonderful trip, however you go.

Pregnancy and Travel As long as there are no identified complications or concerns with your pregnancy, it is generally safe to travel at all times during your pregnancy. The ideal time to travel during pregnancy is the second trimester. In most cases you are past the morning sickness of the first trimester and several weeks from the third stage of pregnancy when you are more easily fatigued.

Air: Traveling by air is considered safe for women while they are pregnant Some tips: Most airlines allow pregnant women to travel through their eighth month. Traveling during the ninth month is usually allowed if there is permission from your healthcare provider. Most airlines have narrow aisles and smaller bathrooms, which makes it more challenging to walk and more uncomfortable when using the restroom.

Because of potential turbulence that could shake the plane, make sure you are holding on to the seat backs while navigating the aisle. You may want to choose an aisle seat which will allow you to get up easier to reach the restroom or just to stretch your legs and back Car: Whether you are traveling by car, bus, or train, it is generally safe to travel while you are pregnant. Some tips: It is essential to buckle-up every time you ride in a car.

Make sure that you use both the lap and shoulder belts for the best protection of you and your baby. Keep the air bags turned on. The safety benefits of the air bag outweigh any potential risk to you and your baby.

Buses tend to have narrow aisles and small bathrooms. This mode of transportation can be more challenging. The safest thing is to remain seated while the bus is moving.

If you must use the restroom, make sure to hold on to the rail or seats to keep your balance. Trains usually have more room to navigate and walk. The bathrooms are usually small making the restroom more uncomfortable.It is essential to hold on to rails or seat backs while the train is moving.

Try to limit the amount of time you are cooped up in the car, bus or train. Keep travel time around five to six hours. Use rest stops to take short walks and to do stretches to keep the blood circulating Tips for you: Dress comfortably in loose cotton clothing and wear comfortable shoes Take your favorite pillow Plan for plenty of rest stops, bathroom breaks and stretches Carry snack foods with you If you are traveling any distance, make sure to carry a copy of your prenatal records Wear your seatbelt and take other safety measures Enjoy the trip Sources: Travel a lot.

My seven months old daughter is pretty fine.

Don't forget to add on time waiting around airports Obviously it would be quicker to fly but would you be more comfortable driving, in that you can stop for refreshments, go for a walk, etc. The flight may be only 2 hours but what about all the waiting around at airports, security checks and so on, I am sure all that will add to your original 2 hours. If you drive could you arrange an overnight stop to make things easier for you? Good luck anyway whatever you decide.

It's hard to figure out by the weeks, cuz docs. Calculate differently than me. I don't think, if you are 8 months, that you are supposed to do either one.
