Hello ma'am and welcome.

All women in their third trinester should avoid travelling, although regular mild walks are helpful, travelling through any mode of conveyance would be adviced against and should be kept to the minimum. So my advice would be to take maternity leave once you enter your 8th month, to be on the safer side.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
