Flying with pregnant pax

I'm looking for some learned opinions regarding flying with someone who is pregnant. A friend wants to propose to his fiancé by flying over a paddock with the proposal written out in hay bales :-) his fiancé is 33 weeks pregnant, the aircraft is a C172 the flight will be about 30min at no more than 2000'. I can assume that there will be no problem with pressurisation but I'm not sure about comfort, seat belt effectiveness, bumps and possible emergency procedures. If anyone can offer some advice, personal experience etc. that would be much appreciated.
