Flying over 28 weeks - GP won't provide me a letter LLP

[hml2194]

Hi, I am due to fly abroad (short haul flight) next week when I will be 28+3. At my 20 week scan I had a low lying placenta which is why the doctor won't sign my letter. I went for a private scan today to find out that my placenta had moved, however docs still won't accept this as it's not linked to the NHS. Does anyone have any advice please? :( really don't want to lose out on all this money if I am in fact safe to fly. No other issues and had a very smooth pregnancy so far.

Try your midwife I flew at at 28w just before Christmas, I mentioned to my midwife and she already had a pre-typed letter that she just filled out, dated and signed.
I have an anterior placenta but my pregnancy is low risk with no concerns.
I wasn't asked for the letter by any of the airport or airline staff on either leg of the journey.
Good luck!

Agree to try the midwife, they should hopefully have a letter ready to go.

I flew at 28 weeks recently and wasn't asked at any point - I didn't have a letter as my midwife couldn't do one (some small risk factors from my first pregnancy, but it had to be totally low risk for them), and the letter from the GP was about £75 so we decided to risk it. I wore something that doesn't make me look very pregnant and stood behind my son's buggy!
