I briefly asked the doctor about flying while pregnant, and he said to wear the compression stockings (I never would have thought of it myself!), but we didn't have a proper conversation about it (he was in a hurry to get me out and see his next patient). I'm glad to read your answer, because I didn't think it would be such a big deal for a such a short flight, if as you say I do exercises and walking around. Last time I flew the same distance while pregnant I was only 5 months, this time I'm further along so just thought I'd see what other women in my situation have done. I will also ask my midwife at my next visit.
Thanks again :)
