Lesson learned here... I called my ob on wednesday about the pains etc I was having (I mentioned them here on the weekend, so it has been going on since the then). The nurse told me that a feeling of pressure and shooting pains in my groin was "not fun, but completely normal". I was upset they wouldn't at least give me a once over before declaring me a whiner! ...anyway, cut to last night- pains worse, cut to today- hurts to pee. Yep, it was a uti all along, and thankfully the gp could prescribe antibiotics this afternoon.
I am pissed off at my ob, and at myself for not insisting I be seen when I knew something was wrong. In the grand scheme of things, a uti is not that bad- but just wanted to share and to tell you all to trust your instincts! If you know something is up, it most likely is!!
This is a lesson I have had to learn a couple of times- and perhaps now is a good time for me to get a reminder. It is up to us to advocate for ourselves and make SURE everything is going well for us and baby!
It's been an exhausting day - and having to contend with DH's other 2 boys not being very happy they are not getting a sister is going to be quite stressful this weekend 
I really hope the meds kick in soon!!!
I did ask earlier in the thread if there were any other hopefuls but didn't get any responses so thought it was just me! Have you seen your Consultant yet? I have my first appointment on 8th October, hopefully it'll be straightforward.
