First of all, congratulations on the baby. Not to insult anyone on here who are trying to give you helpful answers, but you should really be talking to your doctor about this.
Every pregnancy is different, and your doctor can best advice you the best methods to use during the flight to stay as relaxed as possible.
Please do not take any unsubscibed medication at all, even over the counter such as the unisom that another answerer mentioned. It was probably perfectly fine for her, but may not be so fine for you and your baby. Some women are more sensitive than others, and any meds crossing the placenta can be dangerous for the baby.
If you are working with a child birth class, you may want to call the instructor, she/he should be able to give you some suggestions for some breathing exercises and meditations or visualizations to help you through the flight.
I think I would be concentrating on how much fun you are going to be having with your five sisters, you are truly blessed. Have a wonderful trip it will give you wonderful memories to talk about with your child later on how he/she visited with his/her aunts before being born. Hope you all had a Happy Valentines day and have fun.

its fine for your baby. I am asuming that the flight in short since its just for a weekend.. my friend and sister in law both few to australia (from the uk) while pregnant my sister in law was 11 weeks and my friend was 28 weeks when she flew. they both have happy healthy babies one is turning 1 tomorrow... the only that they might harm your bub is you stressing out.. this is ment to be a holiday relax while you have the chance,, and congrats on the bean

i think you shouldnt go because flying is a very nervious thing and at the end of the day you have many more years when you can go on hoilday with your sisters and you want your baby to be healthy so flying isnt a go move at all .... think before what ever you do

People who fear flying, fear death. Come to terms with dying and then you'll have no fear of anything.
Thats how I deal with it. If I die in the plane, then thats where I die. Atleast it was in pursuit of something I enjoyed, like traveling.
If you cant do that, ask your doctor for a sedative, there are certain ones you can take while pregnant. You can take a sleep aid like REGULAR unisom, half a tablet.

listen to ur fav. music and try not to think about it you will be fine plus i got that many sisters they completely stress me out! i would be more stressed out if we were all in the same room cuz if we all argue at some point you must have to also, it doesnt matter if its just about hair or telling one of them to do something we all get into it
