A little update on me (or knowing the way I ramble not so little
)
So me and the wee man have had a chest infection and just happened to start when oh went away for 4 days...
so with the usual sickness and pain I get I had to deal with a poorly toddler , constant coughing which leaves you in the most horrible pain up you back and sides and also breathing problems
thankfully oh is back now an me and lo have been on anti biotics for a couple of days and wee one seems in the mends so hopefully I will follow soon!
plus oh gave me a lie in today which was like a little bit of heaven even though I was wide awake
haha
As for the pregnancy with just over a week since I complained and said I was refusing to see the shitty midwife again , the new midwife had managed to get me and appointment with physio as for months now I've been in agony tbh and she got me an appointment with a consultant from away on the same day (today) even though she (the midwife) was super busy
So I seen her and the consultant first today and he was just so lovely! He said he had had a quick look through my notes and praised me on how I hadn't just broke down and given up with the amount of painfull symptoms/ conditions I've had this pregnancy ( I could have cried when he said that I've done so well because you know what it's like you sometimes feel people don't know how hard and how much pain you are actually in24/7 and they may just think you are being a wimp or overreacting
) so to have some sort of acknowledgement from someone I've never met before and he's just read the things that I've been through and not even seen the effects just felt good idk why
and the best part is he actually said "because of the ongoing pains, sickness, etc etc you are getting it would be cruel to keep you pregnant any longer then you have to be... So come 38 weeks we will start looking at dates to get you induced"
I could have actually kissed him!!
even though it will be only a couple of weeks shaved off the 40 mark or if I went later 42 mark it feels like months!
and it just feels so much closer now till the finish line and excuse my language but I can't fucking wait!!!
So anyways next was the physio and I described all the aches, pains and pressure that has been going on and how long ago some of the started and she did the usual things that I suppose they do like try make you bend ect and she said that I deffonetly had bad lower back problems (can't remember if she have it a name or not
) also I had a bad case of pelvic girdle pain I think it was
and also something else but I can't remember for the life of me what it was and going by how long ago I said they started and gradually from aching to pain and aching and got worse and worse till maybe a month or two ago where now I am in pain 24/7 it sound like it started over five months ago!! And I should have been seen long ago before it got this bad! (So that's another big X , neglect or whatever you want to call it by my previous midwife ...) still so annoyed with her and when I found that out today my blood was boiling! But trying to hair let it go now because I have the fantastic midwife now and within just over a week she's had me seen by physio and a consultant and things are quickly looking up! One being I don't have to go full term!!
and the second being I've got help from the physio like exercises to do ect to help ease the pain a bit and also I've got something similar to a support band but different....
( it's just like a giant tuby grip o think you call them like for when you sprain your wrist etc? Haha ) and it goes from all the way under bump to right under my breasts and I've only had it on a few hours and I'm already feeling a bit of relief
she did say it won't take away the pain because it's got so bad now but even a bit of relief is just ahhh! Something!
I think I covered everything haha so much for a "little update"
Hope you ladies and little (not so little ...) bumps
are doing okay
P.s sorry for all the typos
