I just didn’t tell the airline I was pregnant and wore a baggy jumper… of course if anything happened on the flight it was the first thing my husband would have told them. But they didn’t ask and I didn’t tellI'm just 28 weeks so I'm annoyed that we didn't book our trip a week earlier (just going to visit family). My midwife called back to say it's only £30 instead of £50 but still seems a lot.
The only issue with this is that if anything happened to you, the airline or airport wouldn’t be liable for anything if you didn’t have a F2F certificate. Obviously it’s unlikely but worth bearing in mind depending on how long the flight is and if you have any health issuesI just didn’t tell the airline I was pregnant and wore a baggy jumper… of course if anything happened on the flight it was the first thing my husband would have told them.

Just call and reassure yourselfI think I know the answer to this but I'm not sure I've felt the baby move today and my stomach feels so tight and achey. I should call triage shouldn't I to see what they say? Silly question too, if they ask me to go in will they see me without my maternity notes? My notes are at home but I pass by the hospital on my way home from the office so it makes sense to go straight there from work.
Just to say in my first pregnancy I didn’t feel much movement at all and no real pattern. I started working myself up about it to the point I went in for reduced movements and discovered what I had mostly been feeling as movement was actually him hiccuping.28 weeks but I don’t feel the baby kick much. I read online that you should feel your baby move more or less every hour but I only feel her move mornings and evenings. Is anyone else in the same boat? I have a posterior placenta
Turns out (which I didn't know) is the doctor won't sign the letter if you have a low lying placenta. So I need to go back in tomorrow for another scan so see if my placenta has moved before they decide if they'll sign it for me.The only issue with this is that if anything happened to you, the airline or airport wouldn’t be liable for anything if you didn’t have a F2F certificate.

I called them and was advised to go in. All is fine thankfully! He even got the hiccups whilst I was hooked up to the CTG.I think I know the answer to this but I'm not sure I've felt the baby move today and my stomach feels so tight and achey.

babymel bags are gorgeous!Can anyone recommend a good changing bag for on the go?
I'm sorry you're feeling like that this week. I think it's hard when all the excitement dies down a bit. I feel like I got lots of sympathy at the start because I was so sick, but no one bothers too much about how I feel now (aside from my partner and one friend). It just doesn't hit home with my mum when I tell her how sore the ligament pain has been. I feel like she's more concerned with looking at baby clothes in the shops than how I might be feeling.babymel bags are gorgeous!

Feeling so lonely this week, I’ll be 31 weeks this week so all the support and excitement at the start has just completely gone. Nobody checks on how I am, my husbands family never bother with us anymore (my family are far away) and just struggling with low moods and pain 🥲🥲🥲
Aw yeah I feel like a lot of the older familyI'm sorry you're feeling like that this week. I think it's hard when all the excitement dies down a bit.

Sorry everyone. My friend is married to a top gynaecologist. YOU MUST TAKE YOUR NOTES ABSOLUTELY EVERYWHERE WITH YOU. I made a folder with old family baby photos on it and carried it in a large handbag. If something happens to you, the notes MUST go with you. OK, the chances are hopefully very slim (not for me, I have a 53% chance of miscarriageJust call and reassure yourselfI’ve never needed my notes, it’s always been fine
I forgot my notes once at a scan and I got really told off by the consultant - but everything was on the system anyway… which made the telling off feel really unnecessary and self-indulgent of the consultant to do. I think in terms of movement they’d rather see you with no notes and make sure baby is okay than you delay going for some notes. Take a photo/put your NHS number in your phone so they can at least find your notes on the system easier but I wouldn’t worry too much. Baby’s safety comes first.I think I know the answer to this but I'm not sure I've felt the baby move today and my stomach feels so tight and achey.

I’m literally in my local day unit now for an emergency check up.. and I didn’t need my notes, no one has asked for them, and I wasn’t asked to bring them / told I need them eitherSorry everyone.

If something happens to you, the notes MUST go with you. OK, the chances are hopefully very slim (not for me, I have a 53% chance of miscarriage). But if you collapse at work/Tesco, who is going to think to go to your car to get your notes? Carry them everywhere
Thanks for tbe recommended and I'm so sorry you're feeling like that. It feels like towards the end, everyone's only really thinking about the baby and not how mum is doing. Hope your low moods and pain gets better soonbabymel bags are gorgeous!

I agree, this seems insane? My notes are all digital but surely your hospital number/DOB is all they need. If you colllapsed in the street when not pregnant and got rushed to hospital they wouldn’t need your medical history on a piece of paper…!I’m literally in my local day unit now for an emergency check up.. and I didn’t need my notes, no one has asked for them, and I wasn’t asked to bring them / told I need them eitherI’ve been more times than I can count as well and it’s never been an issue
Your hospital will be able to identify you by name and NHS number so there is no need to panic! I would be more inclined to have my phone set up with emergency contacts / details in my bag for those kinds of situations
