21 week Pregnant wife and I are flying tomorrow from Belfast to EWR and on to FLL.
We currently have no seats assigned and seems the flight tomorrow is pretty full ( can only book Business class seats now on United website )

Hi Kacee
Price dropped down to about $300 on those seats
Will keep an eye on the seat map as currently still quite a few e+ available.
Will probably chance a free upgrade at airport - would you advise to be early and arrive first to check in ?

Yes, although it may not help. They may not assign those seats until the gate. So I'd factor that uncertainty (and the degree to which you will stress about it) into the equation.

Weebobby - The SeatGuru link is broken, but I'm assuming the aircraft is a 757-200?
If so, that makes row 21 an exit row seat. I'm not sure a pregnant woman can be seated in an exit row, since the pregnancy could be considered a disqualifying 'condition' - never mind the whole 'lift 60lb without causing bodily harm' aspect.
You may be able to assign it ahead of time and risk it, but depending on whether your wife is showing, the GA or FA may not allow her to sit in the exit row. (Although at that point you may be able to swap with another pair of E+ pax.)

I agree w/Critic, exit row at 21 weeks might not be the best of ideas, but only the two of you (and a GA or FA) can make that determination.
The bulkhead's open tho (7ABC) and what Kacee said about possibly being assigned E+ at check-in is probably true. I'd personally take the chance.
It goes without saying, but be your sweetest to any personnel you interface with and it helps that coach is zeroed out for sale.
