If you are healthy.: If healthy and not spot bleeding you will be fine to fly. Talk with OB about medications before you go. Avoid aspirin and Advil, etc. You can use Tylenol (acetaminophen) if needed. Get up and walk every 30 minutes or so to prevent blood clots in your legs, and make sure to drink plenty of water. Inactivity and dehydration will put you at risk for blood clots in the deep veins. Don't forget your prenatal vitamin
