Also, can I still fly at about 20 or 21 weeks?

A xo

I am flying to Rome at 32 weeks, not really by choice but hubby thought it was romantic to book a last 'just the 2 of us' holiday! When he has to hoist me up and roll me down the aeroplane steps and I have to go to the loo every 30 seconds on the flight, it will put romance firmly out of his mind.

I am flying with Ryan air and I know that they require a letter from GP/MW when you are over 28wks confirming you are fit to fly. If you think you might look larger than your actual weeks it might be worth getting a note just in case as they can still turn you away if they dont believe you.

I hope people aren't offended at me asking this but does anyone have a link to a site where you can view survival rates of babies born early? I found a site ages ago which listed the % chance of survival week by week but I can't find it any more.

I found this page helpful:
http://www.babylink.info/edinburgh/BabyOnUnit/Outcome.aspx

It is just based on one unit, but it gives real figures for weeks 23 to 36. I found it helpful to know real numbers.

Cheapskate, you really need to get it sent off and upgraded for a photo one... I'm sure I've heard you can get fined for not doing it...

Sorry to but in, but this is not the case Krystaltips, an old style paper licence is fine so long as all the details are correct. If you move or change you address you will have to get a photocard licence, as part of the changing address process, or you turn 70 and have to re-apply for your licence. Until you have to change the details it is fine. There are multiple threads on this very subject on motoring websites such as pepipoo or pistonheads if you want further reassurance.

Personally if I had a non photocard licence I would keep it as long as possible as you don't have to pay to renew every 10 years much more MSE

Thanks Krystal. I know it might sound a bit of a strange request but I just want to know that if my baby was born at X weeks, then s/he or would have X chance of survival. I'm 27+5 now, so I know the chance of survival is going up quite quickly and I don't have any reason to think that anything will go wrong but I just like the reassurance.

Feelie, if you're out there....
