I'm traveling and I'm pregnant.

I'm traveling and I'm pregnant. . .?
I'm not so worried about the stress of traveling, but rather the packing and preparing. I've always been such a freak about packing or organizing weeks before my departure. I make lists and check them off before I leave and before I come back home I check the list off again so I won't forget anything. I'm needing some help with what I SHOULD make sure to take with me on this non-stop flight from San Diego, CA to San Antonio, TX. (Only 3 hrs.) This is my first time traveling pregnant. (by the way my doc is cool with me traveling at 6 mos.) Anyhow, I know as a pregnant woman I need to bring my prenatal vitamins. Anything else? Of course I have the usual items on the list like clothes, camera, charger for camera, books, shoes, seeing glasses, cell phone, cell phone charger. I've already look over the TSA list of what NOT to take on board. I'll bringing a small carry-on suitcase and not bothering with toiletries since family'll have all that at their house. Suggestions?

Other than your essentials and vitamins, I wouldn't worry about taking anything else. I flew from Houston to SF and back several times during my pregnancy and had to worries. Enjoy your visit. (I'm only 3 hours by car from SA!)

I would be sure to bring healthy snacks. You never know what kind of junk they will feed you on the plane, if they feed you at all! I would also bring my own water, I recently read something about how dirty the flight attendants hands get because they are touching everything that everyone on the plane has touched, so even if they wash their hands you are not protected against other people who don't...yuck. Also, I don't normally use anti-bacterial hand sanitizer, but I bring it when I travel. That's all I can think of. Have a fun trip!
