Hi guys bit concerned as I had pre e with my son and also a benign brain Tumor.

Reckon it's worth calling drs? Or call midwife and leave message for them to get back in 24 hours?

Also anyone reckon drs are open today (bank hol Monday)

I would call for sure. Its always better to be safe! Especially if you have a history of pre-e. I don't know if they would be open or not as I don't live over there, but call them for sure!

I'm in Canada but originally fom UK. I very much doubt any Drs will be open..I would call NHS direct, but with your history it might be wiser to call the hospital and voice your concerns. X

Thanks guys.
Nhsd is a pile of pants lol. Think I may just need my bp checked.

Is it worth calling the midwife and leaving a message do u reckon? Its 3.42am here. X

I think like Maple Leaf said it would probably be worth it to just go ahead and call the hospital, especially if the doctors will be closed today.

I know why you mean about NHS direct......
I would give labour and delivery a call. I doubt your midwife will be of any help at this time.

Eeeeek last time I called l and d cos of reduced fetal movement that was being monitored cos of blood flow in umbilical cord the woman made me cry haha so bit nervous calling with just a headache.

Ahhhhhhh I wish I could just do my bp now and know its just one of those pregnancy symptoms.
