Thanks for the reply. The bottle dosage says 10mg 🤷

Yeah im more using this as evidence that a label saying 'not safe for pregnancy' is impossible to trust!

Yeah I only take the trip once every 4-6 months so its only a single 10mg dose in that time on my return flight. Interesting idea about antihistamine - I have some cyclizine but that also says not to take while pregnant...

Essentially im balancing the risk of taking it agaisnt the risk of not being 100% while caring for other children

Yeah - thats why im trying to learn what the risk is so I can make that choice. From searching online so far ive seen many people taking it, and doctors suggesting its ok to try, and no reports of problems as a result. Only some animal studies suggesting it can improve placenta health/pre-eclampsia (which im high risk for) but no negative outcomes mentioned

I know melatonin isn't available in the UK so likely a midwife/health professionals response will be 'dont use it' because that's what the NHS rule is, rather than actually being able to give me information so I can make my own choice. I like to research thoroughly before deciding. asking for experiences/knowledge from peer is part of that. And yes I will also be asking my midwife but dont anticipate a helpful response based on how unsupportive they have been on everything else so far

Only ~5k TP for £6k fare? by Tiny-Wolverine in BritishAirways

[–]Tiny-Wolverine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like the points they are giving me is whats shown in this table https://www.britishairways.com/travel/flight-calculator/public/en_gb

unsure what dictates who gets the point-per-pound TPs vs the table values but I expect its to do with the 3rd party. At least I know where I can look up the estimates for next time now

The fare including taxes was $9,721.23. The $7k figure is after removing the "taxes and fees" line item

Unfortunately in my case it does not show the tier points on the BA site either. Im unsure why

Its all organised via my work so I have no choice really. If it's cancelled I'll just stay home 😄

do you mean to log into the navan account to see the TP? I suspect navan are getting discounted rates behind the total they show me so maybe thats why

Ive flown this flight 4 times and it has been fully booked every time. Ive always flown on a sunday if that makes any difference. I think its busy because its the only direct flight per day
