13 hour flight + 2 hour car ride during week 6

I just found out that I’m in week 5 of my pregnancy this morning. I have a trip planned for end of next week which involves long plane ride and 2 hour car ride (I will most likely have to drive). I however read that it’s not advisable to do such long trips early on as it increases risks of miscarriages. Does anyone have advice on this? #firsttimemom #advicepls #firstbaby

I just came back from a 13 hour flight + multiple long bus rides on a 2 weeks long trip. I found out I was pregnant at 5 weeks, 4 days before my trip. I went ahead with my trip but took extra care. My symptoms were pretty mild, but I had brown discharge. Came back and did a scan at week 7.5, heard baby’s heartbeat for the first time :)
