Early August?

You’ll be ok to fly in May.

Anything over 28 weeks you need a certificate to fly - where I am this is issued from the doctors at a cost, midwives cannot issue it.

If you are 7 weeks pregnant then you have 33 weeks of pregnancy left before you are 40 weeks pregnant, which in the UK will be considered your due date.

24th of December + 33 weeks is Tuesday 11th of August 2020.

You will be 28 weeks pregnant, and thus requiring a GP certificate to fly, on Tuesday 19th of May 2020.

This is based on the information you provided, that you were 7 weeks on the 24th December. Due date can change a bit at the 12 week scan, but shouldn't change drastically.

Also, double check with your airline about their rules with regards to pregnant women flying, some can have an earlier cut off I think. And consider outbound and return flight dates.
