Never travel against your doctor's advice

If you are planning to travel abroad when you are pregnant, the first thing you should do is consult your doctor or midwife. Most women can travel safely well into their pregnancy, but it is always best to check and never travel against the advice of your doctor or midwife.

When you are planning a holiday, NHS choices recommend that you find out about health care facilities at your destination and take your medical records with you so that you can give local doctors relevant information if necessary.

You will also need to check with your airline or tour operator if they have any restrictions on travelling when pregnant and you may need to take a doctor's note with you when you travel.
