First, I hear ya. I actually saw my dr today and he said even though technically I was fine, I have to listen to my body. I told my husband I just don't think I can go. I'm sad because my son is going to be ring bearer and I really wanted to see it. I don't know if the wedding is going to be video taped, so I'm a little sad.

Second, you live in tucson? I live in Tucson! Well, Marana. How old is your older child? I have a 2 year old and then this one on the way.

meghan, i flew at 35 weeks during my first pregnancy cross country (from delaware to california) and it was terrible!! my ankles swelled to the size of my thighs, i swear i spent the entire flight crying to my husband because i was so uncomfortable!!

my dr told me the same thing about the mucus plug regenerating when i called they said not to worry but to "hurry home" from my trip! i do have to go back in tuesday (the day before i leave) and get checked and make sure im not dialating or anything just to be safe!! ill be super sad if i had to cancel at the last minute but i dont want to have my baby "somewhere" in between tucson and northern california in my car!

I have been steadily loosing mucus for a few weeks now, but not in one big glop. I asked my dr and he said that it is normal, it regenerates. But, you might want to get checked out before going on your trip, just to make sure you aren't starting to diolate or anything. I'm sure your family would understand if you canceled the trip because you were having a baby.

I too am traveling in the next few weeks, but we are flying from AZ to Boston, and I am terrified of having my baby early. My son is a ring bearer in the wedding, but we may be canceling the trip. I just haven't felt right about it lately.People will understand. Don't push yourself.

At least if something happens you'll be around family! Praying baby stays put and you can enjoy your time with them : )

not yet! But you might want to think twice about traveling.... are you driving/flying? I hope baby stays put if you do go!
