Should I be concerned at all about flying at 14 weeks pregnant? I have had no complications. We had a Dr. appointment today and I meant to ask and forgot, now instead of calling I feel like I should just leave well enough alone rather than risk the Dr. being overly cautious.

At 14 weeks, I don't think there's anything to be concerned about given your complication free pregnancy so far.
I flew across the world (from Singapore back to the US) when I was 32 weeks along with my first DS (needed a written approval from my OB at that time) and I flew from to and from VA (from TX) when I was 19 weeks with my twins.
Just drink a lot of water and get up and walk the aisle a few times. GL!
Better safe than sorry, I guess, the doctor has been overly cautious imo and freaked out when I had some very light pink spotting and put me on BR for 6 days, so I was worried to ask!
