Travelling when pregnant

Hi everyone! Has anyone travelled multiple flights during a trip when 20+ weeks pregnant? I'm going for a holiday and heading to 3 countries all by which i need to take a plane multiple times over a period of 18 days. The flight to and from SG is quite long about 12 hours but between the other countries it takes abt 2-3 hours. Total will be taking 6 flights altogether. I can't change the name on the flight ticket and if i don't go, its thousands thousands of dollars wasted. Gynae did not say I couldn't go but am just thinking what to do. For my own mental well being, i really want to go for one last trip before baby is born but if anything were to happen due to the multiple flights or anything happens overseas, i will also regret. Am at such a loss and any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Just take it slow and plan a very chill itinerary😊 agree with others - wear compression stockings on flights and at nights before sleep (it helps after a long day of walking), get enough rest whenever u can, do not lift or carry heavy items (leave the luggage to husband!), best not to not eat raw salad, smoked meat, and soft cheese in europe cities. Keep an open mind and just enjoy the precious couple time with hubby! Happy mummy happy baby🥰
