1) Should we let BA know prior to our flight or just mention it to the crew when we board.

2) I did a quick search for a 'pregnant' meal option and couldn't find anything. Does one exist, will the crew know what to do onboard or do we simply have to 'deal with it' , so to speak.

Should point out we are flying in Club World.

Appreciate any advice,

Thanks

Hi Chris, there is no such thing a pregnant meal and to be honest I wouldn't have a clue what she should or shouldn't eat.
There is no point in ringing BA, but I would suggest taking a look at the special meals available and see which is the closest option.
Whatever you decide, the crew will work with you and do their best to find things suitable.
