Brief Answer:
Hi,

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
Travelling by flight of 2-3 hrs is better choice than travelling by train for 1-2 days, if travelling is really must. If she is not having any medical disorder, she can do her normal outine work. Pregnancy is not a disease so no need of bed rest etc. Give her good diet XXXXXXX in green leafy vegetables, pulses, milk and milk products.

Best wishes
