I went to my obgyn this morning to have my first set of blood work drawn.


Told her the family would be flying to AZ in a week. She wasn't the least bit happy with me.....


has anyone flown early on like this? Maybe I should cancel the flight?? ugh!!!

I flew at 5w3d and 5w6d in this pregnancy. You might ask your doctor why it would be a bad idea? I didn't even ask because I didn't think it was a big deal until you were within 6wks or so of your edd! Ask--it can't hurt!

Thank you Erin!


I did some research on the internet... I can kind of see why she was upset... it is more risky I think... but if I am going to MC again... then it wasn't meant to be... and boy would I be so upset but.... I can't stop living.
