Thinking of going on vacation to Key West while 19 weeks pregnant with twins. At this point is it harder to travel? Should we try and go earlier? Thanks!
I just got back from a week midwest to Seattle then Denver then home. I am 22w, I used a wheelchair at one big walking airport (and then we had the closest gate LOL). If I have another plane trip, I will need extender belt- but otherwise it was not hard, ankles swelled with so much "down time" was all :-) Have fun in Key West!
I just traveled last week 6 hours by car at 20 weeks... it was uncomfortable I won't lie but a long as I got to stand up and stretch my legs often it was doable. The worst part was adapting to a different bed at the hotel to be honest.
Have fun on your trip! Ask your doctor if you have any concerns but you should be fine!

I went to Florida (3 1/2 hour plane) when I was 18 weeks. It was totally fine. I was hardly even showing yet, but I did tell the ticket agent, and she "upgraded" us to the first row of the plane so I could use the bathroom easily.
Just wear extra SPF because pregnant skin is extra sensitive.

Two healthy boys weighing 4 lbs 15 ozs and 4 lbs 5 ozs. Only 6 days in the NICU and getting bigger, stronger and cuter every day!
We traveled from Oregon to Florida Friday (head back tomorrow!) and I'm 23/24 wks. It wasn't awful, but uncomfortable after being on plane for so long!

I just got back at 19w.. I wasn't showing very much so I felt completely normal. I got up to use the restroom in the middle of each flight & rolled my feet around while sitting. You'll be fine!

I went on vacation at 19 weeks which included 4 hour flights and 6 hour drives, trips to the zoo and science centre, etc., and it was fine. Wouldn't have been able to do it much later than that though.

I took at trip from Az to Utah at 20 weeks which is a 12 hr car ride and it wasn't bad. Just had to stop and stretch out every few hours. They only thing that killed me was the elevation difference. I thought I was going to die walking around the mall because I kept getting so out of breath! But I think 20 weeks is probably the best time to go somewhere before you get too big and uncomfortable!
I took 4 flights at 20w. Best advice I can give you is Give yourself extra time. I got out of breath on the long walks to gates. Wear compression socks on the flight and bring a small travel pillow. Hotel beds were way worse than the flights. Have fun!
