Would you holiday at 29weeks?

Need help deciding what to do. We had a holiday in the silli isles booked before BFP but I'll be 28/29 weeks pregnant by then. Would you still go?

Yes but not to scilly in case baby came early but I was having twins and so chances if early arrival was high (came at 33 weeks) so I only went places I could get to a hospital with a nicu.

The Isles of Scilly are in England so I no special insurance needed unless you're from another country.

Pre-term labour at 28/29 is very rare unless you're pregnant quads or at least triplets. If your pregnancy goes more or less ok, then the holiday is likely to be fine.

Sorry, just realized you'll be actually 33 weeks. See how the pregnancy goes - it's too early to tell if there might be counterindications.

@hopegg no worries at least you worked out how far along you'll be.
Considering it's not too far away I'd say you'd be fine. And we actually have some decent midwife care here if anything did happen. (38 weeks... you can even find a tour of the centres/hospitals on YouTube if you wanted a look just in case)
The only concern is obviously getting from the mainland to the Scilly isles. Are you going by ferry or plane?

Just seen you said you're flying. Probably a better idea tbh as the ferry can be really off putting 😂😂
