My wife is due to deliver in Kerala, and she's planning to travel on January 8th, 2017. She'll be nine months pregnant by then. We're wondering if it's safe for her to travel by car or train since the journey will take more than 10 hours. What do you think?

I'm a bit concerned after our 29-week anomaly scan showed a collapsed fetal stomach. Everything seemed normal during the NT scan, so I'm wondering if this is something to be worried about. Could you provide some guidance or insight on this?
