Hi Randa, Please get an ultrasound done,if it is normal and corresponding to your dates and you do not have any other symptoms ;You can safely travel. Please make sure you carry your medical reports and also ,prefer the aisle seat. Take adequate fluids and avoid dehydration. take a short walk in the flight every 2-3 hours to stretch your legs.Wear loose comfortable clothing. Hope this helps . Regards.
