Fit to fly certificate for easy jet

I’ll be going to Greece at about 28 weeks pregnant and wondering if I need a fit to fly letter from
The GP? Is says on the easyJet website that it’s not needed but the NHS that you need one if your are 28 weeks and above.

Do all airline differ? Is is best to just get one anyway?

I'd contact easy jet to be sure

I would get one to be on the safe side, but I didn’t get mine from my GP when I went away, it was given to me by my midwife at a routine midwife appointment

What insurance was that if I can ask? Literally most say pregnancy isn't a health condition so there is no insurance for pregnancy 🤯🤯 I am flying for the 2nd time, purchased 2 different travel insurances and both got this in their policy "pregnancy is not a health condition to be declared" But it also says it won't cover premature labour if abroad after 32 weeks with a singleton pregnancy which makes sense. To clarify I had AXA insurance and now Admiral Platinum.

I'm flying to Greece with Jet2 on Wednesday and I'll be 27 weeks. Their website said you have to have one over 27 weeks, luckily they have their own pregnancy fit to fly on the Jet2 website so just printed that out and got my midwife to stamp that

I’m flying with easyJet and Ryanair at 28/29weeks pregnant and I am planning on asking my midwife before I go for a fit to fly just in case I’m asked

Best to get one, airline isn't going to take your word for how far along you are. I don't know about you but I can't tell the difference between someone who is 28 weeks and someone who is 35 for example

easyJet do not require a fit to fly. They allow travel up until the end of the 35th week so there is no need to get one. They specifically state you do not need to bring a medical certificate on their website

Cool thanks for replying yeah that makes sense. And with twins it is stricter as they are known to come earlier. I never cared for insurance but now in pregnancy defo got it in the case of needing to go to hospital :)

Love my husband. Love my kids. But…

I’m 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I take care of my 4 yo, 2 yo, and 1 yo. I barely have energy to stand anymore. I cuddle and watch movies with my kids all day at this point. My husband is less pushy in this pregnancy in wanting to be touched or love up on me. But I feel more like a tool these days more than ever. He gets frustrated (not to a crazy degree) but I can tell he huffs because he’s probably sexually frustrated from me not wanting to be touched on. (my boobs are super sensitive atm) I love having the babies part, but the pregnancy also now has me feeling like a baby making machine. And a tool with big boobs made for touches and my husbands pleasure. Ofc I love my husband and kids, but with my hormones all wack, it really doesn’t feel the same when you’re not turned on. It’s so hard for me to get turned on. I’m uncomfortable all the time in my own body. Babies moving in there all the time. My children cuddle me all day but get rowdy at the end of the day, so I end up getting touched out and I can get irritable when my husband tries to touch me affectionately. He doesn’t have the tact necessary for me right now, when I wish he wanted to go in for a normal comforting hug I’m let down more often than not, there is almost always a boob groping involved as well. I tried to just let him touch me last night so he could get it out of his system, but he could tell I felt tense. Wish my boobs weren’t such an uncomfortable place for me to be touched. Idk why I’m making this post. Probably just to vent. Wish men were equally as emotionally intelligent as women. Wish I didn’t feel like I still owe him something because he’s picking up a lot of the house load and yet I still need to ask him to do more before these twins arrive. He’s tired every day when he comes home, so he takes a shower sometimes works out, and helps get the kids to bed. So it’s a struggle getting him to help any further than that. Weekends are my only time to get to him. But it’s a struggle to find time on weekends too. I know if he wanted to he would. But there’s just no drive.

Go to dinner ideas

Looking for recipes you use in your family that are not the traditional lasagna, shepards pie, ect

If you DO NOT buy things second hand, it is mainly because:

Answer only if it applies to you.

What are we giving our soon-to-be 3yo for their birthdays?

We have the magnetiles, we have the kinetic sand and play doh, we have the play kitchen…

Literally, is there anything left in the world to buy this spoilt kid? 😅

Baby groups?

Hello there!!
I hope you enjoying the 5month babies 🫠 the cuteness outweighs everything over here.
We live in the area of Croydon & need to start going to baby groups ( I NEED it more than him though) but I am a little bit clueless. Any recommendations?
We are happy to travel a bit too.
Thanks ☺️
