Which resort are you staying in as this may help members with medical information.
Yes that would help we are in yakliavak near bodrum!
Luckily we have no first hand knowledge, but have known others who have.
In the small resort where our apartment is, there is a 24 hour walk in medical centre, and the main hospital in Marmaris is supposed to be good.
Would presume things are the same in most of the tourist areas.
If you are going on a package holiday there will probably be a phone number for a doctor in the information either in your accommodation or on the notice board in a common area.
If you are doing a diy holiday, I would ask the owner of the accommodation before you go how you would find a doctor if you need one.
In our apartment we have a notice on the wall with useful and emergency phone numbers, I would hope that most owners have provided the same.
You should find out from the company who have supplied your insurance whether you are covered for any condition associated with pregnancy.
There is a good hospital near Bodrum: Universal-Hospital Bodrum, Konacik-Bodrum (0252) 317 1515, you will also be able to find a medical centre in Yalikavak and there are several specialists in Bodrum. Should you need to find someone they would be able to give you advice at the medical centre.
