Doctor's letter to fly at 21 weeks - need a scan?
Hi ladies
I am 21 weeks pg and planning to fly to Paris on Friday. I am already quite big so I guess it's best to have a doctor's letter just in case they ask. I am delivering at AW and went to Al Badaa for my first OB appt yesterday. It went well and I had a basic scan in the OB office. Stupidly, I forgot to ask for the letter during the appt as I had my 2 kids with me and there was so much going on. I only remembered afterwards and ran back to ask the OB, although she was dealing with someone else by then. She quickly told me that I needed to see my private OB for a more thorough scan to check the placenta before flying (??). I wonder whether she just didn't have the time and said that to get out of it (lol).
I'm not sure i want to go back to my private OB who is really expensive and may use it as an excuse to do all sorts of tests etc.
So my question is... do you actually need a full scan before flying? Also, as I just had a full check-up yesterday (with urine test etc) is it possible for a GP at a govt clinic to access these records and write me a letter?
I've just paid 5k for the antenatal package and don't fancy paying for a load of other tests which I don't need. Any ideas?
Thanks,
