Woke at 5 am today with a migraine this morning. I always had them before but been worse since being pregnant. I was having one every week and they were lasting 3/4 days. I did mention it to the midwife at my 16week appt but she didn't say anything
This time last year I started passing out and fitting then when I woke it would take me a long time to come round and had slurred speech and felt drunk n exhausted. I had my brain checked with an e.e.g and everything was fine. No epilepsy or anything. I came off my medication I was taking for depression and touch wood I've not had one since.
So today when I woke at 5 with a banging head my husband got me two paracetamol and I went back to sleep for a while before the alarm went off for work. My head still hurt and I felt absolutely exhausted. I had slurred slow speech and could hardly open my left eye. Hubby got scared coz he's been there to witness these horrible fit things in the past. He called the doctor and I waited til 11.45 for them to call back.
I haven't really felt baby move since going to bed last night and still have the headache although I feel much more alert. He wants me to go in and be checked over now which has scared me. I wasn't worried before as I do.t normally feel baby move much till the afternoon when I get in from work around three. Now I've been walking up and down trying to get baby to move so I can feel something.
I have my 22 week midwife appt at 2.30 but the doctor still wants to see me at 2.10.
My imagination is working over time now. I'm only 22 weeks which means if something is wrong they won't save my little baby :'(
So worried now but I wasn't before the doctor phoned
