Hey can you post this for me ❤️🤞🏻
I’m currently 26 weeks pregnant with my first ( little girl ) so far I’ve had no big problems with my pregnancy but I do suffer with a condition called HS which is a skin condition that causes boils, abscesses and cysts that can be painful and obviously some burst etc ( gross I know the scars are awful ) it’s not curable ☹️… basically it means now I’m pregnant I’m more prone to the dreaded STREP B. Which I am booked into to doctors to hopefully get a referral for testing but I could have it meaning my labour won’t be so straight forward and could need a C-section. But at this stage I won’t know if I do as that will depend on if I have any flare ups before labour or not and if I have strep B which they won’t test usually till right before labour as it can come and go. but can be deadly to new borns 😩
Furthermore I’m supposed to be going on holiday ( booked before I knew I was pregnant ) I have travel insurance up to 32 weeks and it’s only a 4 1/12 hour flight their and 4 hour back. I’ll be 30 weeks traveling there and staying 12 days so I’ll be 32 weeks on return flight. I’m really concerned wether I should go or not ( its non refundable too ) I’m not too worried about the flight as I’ve flown loads in the past and can’t see why it would be different being pregnant other than that I’ll need flight socks etc. But I’m concerned that because I’ll be in my 3rd trimester ( and I’m classed as overweight with a higher BMI got to have glucose test soon ) I could have a premature labour and being in a foreign country where they wouldn’t have my medical records or even know about the strep situation or my HS etc ( or if I do have gestational diabetes which hopefully I don’t 🤞🏻 ) if I did wether my baby would be okay or not 😶 and I’d never forgive myself if anything happened that could’ve been avoided by not going obviously no smoking of money wasted is worth the sake of my baby.
But It’s my partners first time abroad and he’s really looking forward to it and I’m going feel awful and really guilty if nothing happens or if I’m late and I’ve made him miss the holiday and wasted so much money 💰 also my parents are going so they’d still go even if I don’t and I’m not sure how I’d feel giving birth for the first time without my mum 👀🙈 I wanted her and my partner to be with me when I go in to labour.
Any advice would be appreciated? Am I being silly and worrying too much? Should I go? Am I being selfish if I do and I shouldn’t go?
PLEASE HELP??! ❤️

On the HS/GBS front I have both and had a straight forward labour was induced for other reasons. But once they know about the GBS it’s easy to treat and monitor during labour so don’t panic. Are you on some of the HS pages on here? You will be able to get lots of advice if you aren’t on there already x
On the holiday front I’m sorry I can’t say anything other then do whatever you are comfortable with. Holidays can be rearranged at later dates if needs be I’m sure your partner will understand if you don’t want to fly zx
Where are you going? What a difficult situation to be in. Personally I’d probably not go. Not saying that’s the right decision for you, only you can decide that. Good luck whatever you decide.
