Arizona Packing List for a Pregnant Lady

[nsh]

Arizona Packing List: Christmas
This year we are traveling to Tucson to visit the in-laws for a week. Initially, I worried that my pregnancy garb (I will be 18/19 weeks during the trip) would interfere with my normal packing routine of taking just my Synapse and MCB. However, having fewer outfits that I can actually wear has made it much easier to pack than before because I have fewer options. I invested in 2 really nice maternity dresses that I wear frequently for work/fun/errands. I bought cheaper maternity pants and tops from Kohl’s maternity line during a big on-line sale. I am happy it all fits (on me and in the bags)!

Congratulations! Great that your slightly expanded self and wardrobe work in the S19. You continue to inspire me!

Just saw this--congratulations on your impending Interesting Event! And have a great trip--I love Tucson and Arizona in general. Wish I was there now instead of our mid-Atlantic deep freeze.

I have a question--I see you are wearing a dress on the plane. The last couple of times I've flown in a dress or skirt, I got a secondary search and they pretty much said it was because of the skirt. Sometimes I would rather wear a comfortable skirt than pants, especially if I'm going to a professional conference. Do you get singled out for extra security when you fly in a skirt?

Hi @MaggieScratch! Thank you

I don't usually get singled out for extra searches with a skirt or a dress because I have "Global Entry/TSA Pre-Check" clearance. I just whiz through the check points most of the time with my pre-check.

Hmm. Pre-Check becomes more attractive all the time. Thanks for the response!
