I've just returned from a great holiday in France, but we nearly didn't get their, as I was 32 weeks pregant when we were leaving, and the ferry company needed a medical certificate after 28 weeks. Fortunately, after a tense wait, the Captain gave his go ahead for me and the family to get on board! This is my third baby, but it had never even crossed my mind that I might need a medical certificate to go on a ferry! If I'd have booked a flight, that would have been a different matter all together! So, if any of you have a ferry trip planned, check out the terms and conditions of the ferry company carefully! Some of the fast crossings won't take you if you're more than 28 weeks pregnant!
