I am in my fifth month and would like to know if it is safe to take a flight or should I be taking the train. Would appreciate if you also let me know if I should be taking some extra precautions.

As far as I know you can take a flight in your 2nd trimester, if you do not have any complications in your pregnancy.
But to be safe do consult your gynaecologist before your travel.

as long as you have not developed any complication, you can safely travel at this stage. even by flight. speak to a doctor and show her all the reports. she will also suggest you if you need to take extra precaution.

Get acquainted with the airline policies for pregnant women. Different airlines have different rules regarding the same. You might also need some certificate from your gynae to be allowed to travel.
