Brief Answer:
No effect on the baby. Take due precautions.

Detailed Answer:
Hi there. I have gone through your query and I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

First of all do not panic.

As such external sound which is heard in the aircraft is not harmful to pregnancy. It has no impact whatsoever on the organ formation of the baby.

Now a days aircrafts are designed in such a way that internal air pressure is maintained and external engine sounds are not bothersome to the passengers inside.

Please take prior consultation from your treating gynecologist before starting the journey.
please avoid lifting heavy weights and avoid jerky movements.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
Dr. Purushottam Neurgankar.
