hi I understand your concern. as per your history I can suggest you can travel but with great caution.because at your stage chances of preterm delivers are high.
I could not detect from your history that it's a high risk pregnancy or low risk one ...by saying this I mean hope you are not having placenta previa etc.
if that is not there then you can travel but try and take progesterone support 2 days before going and continue it for one week.ang be gentle with the driving.
hope this solves your query.
