A little late on this thread, but I had to travel at 6 weeks pregnant and my doctor had us stop every two hours so I could walk around for about 10 minutes each time. Healthy pregnancy (so far), but the road trip was 13 hours straight through and he was worried about blood clots.

Yep, my OBGYN's caveat for a day-long or more road trip was to make sure to stop and stretch every couple of hours, and to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.

Well, I wouldn't exactly advise this, but I went a couple hours out of town the week I was due. My son was captain of the Varsity cross country team, he was a senior, it was the state championship...I was NOT missing it. Fortunately, one of my friends is an L&D nurse. She finished an all night shift, hopped in my car with her bag of tricks and came to the meet with us. Also, 3 dads on the team are doctors and were all there. There was an excellent hospital nearby, my file ready to fax over, and my doctor knew what I was doing. It was totally worth it to see my boy cross the finish line first for our team.

Fortunately, it was uneventful on the baby front. It's a good thing too because I had the baby a few days later and it was BAM! We went to the hospital and called the kids about 30 minutes later to come and meet their brother.
